34. James Grimward was born about 1739, died before 5 Mar 1811 in Wimblington, Cambridgeshire, England,^⁷ and was buried on 5 Mar 1811 in Wimblington, Cambridgeshire, England.^⁷

General Notes: Tree45 now merged with Tree41:
I am guessing that James is the son of Cornelius and Sarah Behague.
His parents seem to use the spelling Grimward randomly and no baptisms found for him or his siblings, as infants. Ann and Hannah were baptised as adults.
James wrote his will in 9 Feb 1811, it was proved 1811:
beneficiaries Ruth Grimward daughter-in-law wid of late son Thomas ,property in Hook;
Mary Burton daughter widow, property in Hook;
John son property in Hook;
William son property in Hook;
James g/son son of late son Thomas, property in Horsemoor
Oliver Bassingham g/son property in Hook

Research Notes:Very confusing, first 4 children appear as Grimward. Then a gap of several years after which the name Grimwood is used but his Will uses the name Grimward. No mother quoted for the first 4 children, then there was also James and Elizabeth had 3 children baptised on the same day, then the remaining children were attributed to James and Mary. Did James marry three times, Mary Mould, Elizabeth then another Mary? If so I can find neither the deaths or marriages. I suspect that the baptisms in 1774 of Sarah,Thomas and Elizabeth may have the incorrect mother entered, perhaps Mary Mould was Mary Elizabeth or Elizabeth Mary?

General Notes: baptised aged 18
1n the 1881 census , Charity is living with Henry. She is given as 37, married, stepmother whilst Henry is Head and unmarried. I suspect that Henry is her son and she is still unmarried. I have not found the baptism entry. In 1891 Charity is given as un married aged 40 still living at Hook with Henry, unmarried 24. She is given as his mother. In 1901 she is still given as aged 40, unmarried living on her own. She is likely to have been about 57!
