- William_Graham_(colonel) description "William Graham was not a delegate from Lincoln County in 1776 since Lincoln was not formed until 1779. He would have been a delegate from old Tryon County in 1776. In 1775, he married Susannah Bellars Twitty, widow of Capt. William Twitty, who had been hired by the Henderson Company to help Daniel Boone cut the trace through the Cumberland Gap. Twitty was killed on March 25, 1775, near what is now Lexington, Kentucky, at Twitty's Little Fort. He left a wife, seven children and extensive land holdings in what would become Rutherford County, North Carolina, along the Broad River. Graham subsequently became the legal guardian of Twitty's younger children—Russell, Bellariah, Mary and Arabella. At their request, the three eldest Twitty children—William, Susannah and Allen—also came under his guardianship.".
