The first documented Graham seems to be a William de Graham who received lands at Abercorn and Dalkeith from King David 1st in 1127. He must have been a respected gentleman as in the next year his signature is given as witness to the charter founding the Abbey at Holyrood.
His elder son Peter, started the Grahams of Dalkeith and Eskdale branch of the family
and his younger son Alan, founded the Grahams of Montrose line.
