Their names and ages would imply they could have been twins. So the 1855 census probably has the wrong ages for both Harriet and Henrietta and has them out of order.

    The dates of death on the gravestone for William and Margaret are worn but it looks like Margaret died in 1884 and William in 1894. Further research is needed.
    Since this is a gravestone shared with both parents and four children, one wonders when it was carved.
