  One researcher says the oldest son's name here should be Adrian.  Adrian was reported in the 1860 census as Adwin.  Gregory researcher William Mowbray reported a correction on the Ancestry transcrition of the census, but as of 23 June 2019, it had not been corrected.
  
  "The Son transcribed as Adwin is Adrian Gregory."
