I believe this GREAVES tree to be quite wrong and probably based upon an IGI ascent and not on BMD certificates. I was myself taken in by it some years ago.
Robert (born 1863), son of Robert (1882-1883) was certainly alive in 1891 as he was present at the death of his mother.
What worries me about this is not only the wrong ascent, but the appearance of other erroneously transcribed collateral lines descending from Robert & Sarah, found in a reference to a GREAVES-HAVERCROFT tree in Ancestry.com.
I realise that the internet is useful for an exchange of information, but it is irritating to find other families added to the public domain without prior permission.
