It is not clear who the parents of the grandchildren are. Mary, daughter, is shown as unmarried and deaf and dumb from birth!
Supposedly went to Australia with children aged 8 and 9 or 10 in 1864
Remarried in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia in 1882
John Kenyon appears to have abandoned the family in Australia & Alice adopted the surname Hargreaves.
In Richard & his descendants case this has corrupted to Hargraves.
