Wondering why Mary Jane/Ann is known as Graham, perhaps she was married to a Mr Graham? Could her first born children be a Mr Graham's children?

OK so Frederick Greatorex died in 1907 at 4 York Terrace, Regents Park. Probate to his wife Mary Jane.
So no use looking for him in the 1911.

Odd that Mary Jane and Frederick don't appear to be together on any census returns, even after Frederick has retired from the Army.

Hi
been looking at this again and the Frederick Greatorex who died in 1907 was aged 74 so born c1833 which makes him a fair bit older than Mary Jane.
OK so I have been messing about looking at records for Frederick Greatorex born c1833 and there is a baptism to a father Jeremiah (merchant) and mother Eliza - 28 May 1833 at Clapton. So then I went looking for Jeremiah and Eliza and found a marriage for a Walford Greatorex to Sussana Margaret Levick- father Jeremiah, both fathers are merchants.
The Walford name is the surname of Eliza who married Jeremiah at St Dunstan in the West 1 June 1825. Her father, James, gave his consent as she was a minor.
Baptisms of children of Jeremiah and Eliza

Walford Greatorex 1828
Marion Greatorex 1830
Ann Greatorex 1831
Frederick 1833

Spring Hill St John Hackney
Jeremiah Greatorex 50 merchant born in county? No
Marrian Greatorex 10 Yes
Anne Greatorex 9 Yes
James Greatorex 8 yes
Emily Greatorex 7 Yes
Eliza Greatorex 5 Yes
Eliza Walford 60 Ind. Yes
Caroline Nasmyth? 30 Ind. Yes
Has wife Eliza Walford died? because it can't be this Eliza Walford who is 10 years older than Jeremiah.
I am just playing around with this because I am not convinced that Mary Jane's children's father was Frederick Greatorex

Hi Megan,
I saw that one yesterday and there are 3 Mary Jane Fenwicks born 1845+/- 5 years. Two in Durham 1846 and 1849 and one in Northumberland 1849.
I still would like to see the marriage certificate for June 1893 as wel as that for Robert Graham
I'll take another look at censuses later, I'd better do some domestics
