Hi, I wonder if anyone can help. I have a James Yates Grimwood born 27 August 1849 in St. Brides, Fleet Street. I believe he may be the James Yates married to Emily Yates in the 1871 Census living at Rodney Road St. Mary Newington. If this is the James I am looing for his mother Mary Ann Yates Grimwood died in Newington in 1864. It appears that by this time they had dropped the Grimwood in favour of Yates. Please can anyone help. Thank you Sue in Suffolk
