Individual Details

Grace Mae Graham

(17 Nov 1896 - 18 Jan 1988)



Grace always believed the family was surely descended from Ethan Allen. She obtained documentation of a Revolutionary War ancestor so that her daughter and granddaughters could be members of the DAR. The ancestor turned out to be Moses Allen, now believed to be unrelated to Ethan, but the documentation of his service in the "War" was what was necessary, so she did reach her goal.
