Catawba Valley Chapter was honored today, 22 January 2022, to conduct the formal grave marking of Compatriot William Alexander Graham III at Historic Machpelah Cemetery in Iron Station NC. Graham was President of the North Carolina Society of Sons of the American Revolution for the 1930-31 term. We also replaced markers for Gen. Joseph Graham and Capt. Alexander Brevard, that had been damaged or stolen. It was very cold, 23 degrees, there had been 3 or more inches of snow the evening before. Not knowing just how we could postpone or move indoors, we continued with the limited number of people who came. Thank you all who could come out for this. HUZZAH
