  Stonehenge: <Birth at Parapattan on 10th instand the wife of James Greig Esq. of a son>

Java-bode, Feb 12 1877 (https://resolver.kb.nl/resolve?urn=...).

James married Elisabeth Johanna Magdalena van Delden (1853-1900) at Surabaya, May 18 1872.

<Shareholders are:
Baronnesse Ricca della Doppia, b. van Delden, previously widow of J. Greig, in Milan, 78 pieces. Three minor children Greig, 16 each;

This concerns Elisabeth Johanna Magdalena van Delden (1853-1900), daughter of Franciscus van Delden and Maria Duyvné. She was married in the Indies to James Greig (1840-1889), with whom she had three children (Frank, Edwin and Cora). The Greig family lived in Surabaya until 1889. In 1890 Elisabeth was married in Italy to Baron (Duc) Ricca della Doppia and lives in Milan (her daughter Maria Pia Ricca della Doppia was just or not yet born in 1891 and could not yet be a shareholder).>
