Letter to Ruth Dalton Hill (my mother) from Ben and Mattie Lee Graham, Route 1, Box 573-A, Dinsmore, Florida, August 15, 1956:
My father, J.C. Graham of Marquand, Missouri (born in 1864) and my mother Nora C. Graham were married in 1885 (I can't give the month and day), and in 1903 they moved to Fredericktown. They resided there until they came to Indian River City in 1912, where my father engaged in citrus growing. Daddy passed away July 22, 1936. Mother died August 24th 1943.
I was the oldest child by mother's second marriage, and was born June 23, 1886. I was married to Edith Swanson at Marmaduke, Arkansas, in 1913, and my wife passed away in Cumberland, Maryland, November 7, 1918. Then I married Mattie Lee Graham, my present wife, December 24, 1919, in Miami, Florida. We entered the ministry soon after we married and at present are pastoring a Church in Dinsmore, Florida, suburb of Jacksonville.
