BVRI has these 3 births of children of Joseph Gray and Elizabeth Greenwood in Bradford, Yorkshire. Collection Greenhill Wesleyan Methodist.
For all of them the mother's father is Joseph Greenwood and mother's mother is Mary Ann.
Is there a chance that they are your Elizabeth and Sarah?

Sarah Ann Gray born 4 Mar.1834, christened 31 Jan.1836
Elizabeth Gray born 9 Dec.1835, christened 31 Jan.1836

Great grandmother Dorothy Bean nee Abbott (1858-1908)

Elizabeth was born abt 1835 in ?Woodhouse/Hatfield Yorkshire. (I think Her maiden name was gray). Thank you for your help.

I have her on the 1881 census staying with Sarah Gravil who I think is her sister but I am now trying to prove it. I can not find a marriage between a Mr Lister and a Elizabeth Gray.

Thanks again

Jane
