If you look through this thread - on the 1851 census the family transcribed GREENOUGH - and living with them is Joseph HARRIS the wife's brother - so the births from the Glosbdm confirm the mother's maiden name as HARRIS - both born St. Nicholas, Gloucestershire. Their daughter Catharine age 19 on the 1851 census place of birth also born at Gloucester St Nicholas c1832
