David and Jane Dunn Graham are buried at the very back of the oldest section of the cemetery under a tree. The stones are in disrepair. HISTORY OF BROWN COUNTY, OHIO 1883, by W. H. Beers, pg, 667: WASHINGTON TOWNSHIP -- In the fall of 1809, an addition was made to the White oak settlements by the removal of David Graham from West Virginia to this section. Mr Graham was a native of West Virginia, and, before his emigration to Ohio, had married Jane Dunn, of that State, and on his arrival his family consisted of wife and five children--one son and four daughter--and afterward were added to the family two sons and five daughters. By name, the children were Zena, Rebecca, Dortha, Susan, Cassandra, Elizabeth, Jane, Alice, Nancy, John, David and Henry. The father settled on a tract of land now situated on the road leading from Sardinia to Brownstown, about one mile southwest of Sardinia. This pioneer was one of the original members of White Oak Presbyterian Church, and valuable man in the community in which his life was spent. He died August 7, 1845, in the seventy-second year of his age, his wife having preceded him nearly six years, aged sixty-seven years. Their remains rest in the graveyard at Sardinia. Zena, the eldest daughter of these parents, married Lewis Calvin. Rebecca married Joseph McFadden, now deceased; she is a resident of Sardinia. Dortha married S. D. Runyan, both of whom are dead. Susan married Jacob Davis, and both are dead. Cassandra is the wife of Dr. Isaac M. Beck, of Sardinia. Elizabeth married Oliver Shroufe, and is in Iowa. Jane married Shepherd Johnson, and is in Kansas. Alice married George Parks (deceased), and is a resident of the State of Illinois. Nancy became the wife of Andrew Raney, and died in Illinois. The sons are all in the West.
