His father was John Lockwood Graham of Scotland and his mother was Georgina Eliza Graham of Ireland. The family were Church of England and Major Graham was educated at Toowoomba Grammar School before becoming a banker and sugar cane farmer in Ayr, North Queensland. Major Graham was a member of the Queensland Rifles in 1898 and saw action in the South African Boer War from 1900 to 1901 as a Lieutenant in the 4th Queensland Imperial Bushmen. He was in the 14th Australian Light Horse from 1902 to 1904 and in the 15th Australian Light Horse and the 27th Australian Light Horse in 1908. When war broke out in 1914, Major Graham was 41 years old and single and signed up for the war effort. He was a Captain and embarked from Brisbane on 24 August, 1914 with the 2nd Light Horse Regiment, C Squadron, 1st Light Horse Brigade. He sailed to Egypt on HMAT Star of England A15. By 3 October, he had achieved the rank of Major. Major Graham saw action on the Gallipoli Peninsula and was killed on 13 or 14 May, 1915 at Quinn’s Post. His record simply says ‘Killed in Action – Bullet Wounds’. He was 42 years old. He was buried at Pope’s Hill Cemetery, on 19 May 1915 and later reburied at Quinn’s Post, Gallipoli, 5/8 mile north-east of Anzac Cove. As his father had died in 1916, his mother, as his next-of-kin, received his belongings after the war was over. These items included a plaque, scroll and medallion as well as his medals – the Star Medal, British War Medal and the Victory Medal. Major Dugald (Douglas) Maxwell Lockwood Graham is commemorated in a book entitled, “Heroes All: Central Queenslanders who Gave Their Lives Serving the Empire at Gallipoli” by Bronwyn Tarrier. He had had a long and distinguished career. Lest We Forget.
