Person:Alice Gransden (1)

Identity Sometimes Confused

Note that in a deposition, she mentioned "her brother stanborough". This would be her brother-in-law, Josiah Stanborough, husband of her sister Frances^[2]. Some have misunderstood the deposition and concluded that Josiah was her biological brother, rather than her brother-in-law. This doesn't appear to be the case.
