I have a JAMES HENRY GREENGRASS who married MARY ANN AKERMAN
IN Oct 1851 in Middlesex.

However, I have only found 3 daughters on the 1881 census for them
ALICE B abt 1864 in India
ELLEN B abt 1867
EMILY B abt 1872

I wondered if there were any more children born before Alice as it
was 13 years before they had any children.

Could someone please check the 1861 and 1871 census' for me to see if
there were any?

JAMES died in 1887
MARY ANN died in 1893

Many thanks for your help

Sandra
