founder of the "Graham's Bed"

Graham's Bed is a geological formation consisting of layered, variegated, clay-rich sediments found in North Florida. It was first described by geologist James Graham in 1919, who studied the area's stratigraphy for its distinctive, colorful, and often mud-filled layers. These sediments were deposited during ancient periods when the region experienced fluctuating water levels, leading to the creation of these distinctive beds. Graham's work helped deepen understanding of Florida's geological history, especially the processes of sedimentation and the environmental conditions of past eras.
