James Augustus Gransden

  General Notes:

1825 Feby 8th. James Augustus son of Robert and Mary Ann Gransden of Gosborpt born Oct 24 1824. Robert Gransden- House Painter
Ceremony performed by Henry Aubery Veck- Curate
This does not make sense when considered with the birth of Emma, the next child. The dates are too close. There is probably confusion over the birth year. Based on census details James Augustus is more likely to have been born in 1823, rather than 1824. This would fit better with all of the time lines and make more sense.
