The Ionia Daily Sentinel, Saturday, July 25, 1914


Marion Francis Graham, son of William and Adelia Graham, was born in Italy, 
N.Y., March 10, 1844 and died at his home in Matherton, Ionia county, Mich., 
July 12, 1914.

He was united in marriage with Agnes E. Dean July 21, 1867.  To this union were 
born two children, one of whom survives, Mrs. Ruby Andrews of Lansing.

He was a veteran of the civil war and in the battle of Gettysburg received a 
wound from which he never recovered.  He was one of the body guards at the 
national capital when Lincoln’s body lay in state.

The funeral was held Wednesday at Matherton, his comrades of the G.A.R. 
officiating as pallbearers.  A brother, Will Graham, and a sister, Mrs. Susan 
Chapman, came from New York to attend the services.
