Another child (one of several) -

GRANT, EMMA ROSINA mms CARPENTER
GRO Reference: 1867 J Quarter in WHITECHAPEL Volume 01C Page 380

She's with her parents and siblings in 1871 and 1881

George and Emma with children Florence and Joseph (the two youngest children) emigrated to Australia in 1884.
Emma Rosina went on the same voyage, although she's listed separately.

She married in NSW in 1887.

And I could go on, but won't , as I suspect Susan has all this, and is only interested in George Swithin 1784's origins and ancestors.
