I must apologize for not noticing something in this census record.I, and others, have been assuming that the John Graham age 5, is the son of John Graham Jr.Well, actually, family members told us it was his son.
Perhaps he is the son of Napoleon D. Graham and his former wife Emmeline D. Steams who were married in 1853.I was once told N. D. never had children but have never seen the proof of that statement.
This would explain the 3 year old John with John Graham in Burnet Co., Tx. on the census.This doesn't make him the correct guy, but it does open up the possibility.
I've added a few correction notations to the census record for easier understanding.
