I would have to suspect that this was William Sr's grandmother (born in GA), since he named one of his daughters Julia.????? Unfortunately, she is not living with any other Grimes'. Looks like she may be living in a boarding house. The only other Grimes listed in Greene County is Harriet Grimes, 18 (would appear to be his sister) from the 1850 census. She would appear to being living with her sister, Martha....
