Graham H Hamrick was born 18 September 1821 in Rappahannock County [sic], Virginia, a son of Peter [sic] Hamrick. He moved with his father to Rockingham County, and on 16 April 1844, was married to Margaret daughter of David Whitmer, and lived thirteen years in that county. In 1857 he moved to the John N Hall farm on Elk and remained there ten years, and then moved to the farm of Joshua S Corder on Hacker's Creek, and three years later bought the small farm on the same creek where he spent the remainder of his life, and died 11 February 1899.

He is buried in the Mary's Chapel Cemetery, Philippi, Barbour County, WV.
