Thomas was the only son of the late Mr. John Graham, of Newtown, and was born on Mary 4, 1891 at Newtown, and educated at the Fort Street School, joining the clerical staff of the Sydney Morning Herald in 1907.
Volunteering in September, 1915, he was drafted with reinforcements to the Army Service Corps and proceeded to France. He served throughout the Somme campaign in 1916, and in the subsequent operations up to the signing of the armistice. Enlisting as a Private, he was shortly afterwards made a Corporal. He returned to Australia in August, 1919.
