Notes
There were at least two James Grahams in the 50th, possibly more.

This James Graham appears to be Major Graham's son. HIs attestation papers give the same address (Mud Lake, Macleod, Alberta) and the same next of kin and he was born in India, which suggests a family background in the British military. (Major Graham's attestation papers say that he had 26 years previous military experience when he signed up.) Both men seem to have "Graham" both as a surname and as one of their given names.

Lieut. Graham enlisted on May 25, 1915 and presumably underwent officer training before being sent to the front. He is noted as being taken on strength by the 50th Bn. in the War Diary for Nov. 25, 1917.

Does anyone have any more information about this person?
