Molly,
Thank you for the additional information. I would greatly appreciate any help you might be able to provide regarding the father of James McGraw who married Sarah Vandivier (parents of Sanford H).
Most of the information I have regarding James McGraw came from Virginia Stewart, granddaughter of James and Sarah, and the McGraw family Bible that was in Virginia's possession. There are at least eight DAR memberships based upon Peter being the father of James, but these applications were approved many years ago when criteria for proof were not as strict.
Interesting that you have Gibsons in your line. I descend from Gibson's as well. In fact, that is my son's first name. I descend from William Winans McKinley Gibson, b. in Adams Co., MS and d. in Warren Co. He married Rachel Elba Gibson (yes, same last name).
Thanks so much for responding to my posts!
