Bio

She married John W. Graham on Feb 26, 1862 in Pontotoc Co., MS. After the death of John Graham, she married Abraham Hardin on Jan 28, 1874 in Lafayette Co., MS. Abraham Hardin: Philadelphia Baptist Church Cemetery, Lafayette Co., MS. Abraham was with his family when they moved to Pickens Co., AL. There he married Elizabeth, whose maiden name is unknown. He also moved to Chickasaw Co., MS with his father's family, and he supposedly returned to Alabama with brothers Stephen Edward and Thomas. If this is true, he did not stay as long as Stephen for census records show all his children were born in Mississippi. He seems to have lived mostly in Lafayette Co., MS. After Elizabeth's death in 1873, Abraham married Martha Ann (Gafford) Graham. She was the widow of John W. Graham and had two daughters, Mollie and Adeline. On February 5, 1878, he petitioned for guardianship of Mary Jane (Mollie) age 14 and Selina Adeline age 11, heirs of John W. Graham.
