Notes - According to both IGI and the Suffolk Baptism Index (SBI), Thomas and Jane had other children as follows
William (born 28/3/1813 (SBI, IGI has 1815, but seems less likely as does not match other births), bapt 31/5/1815, maybe 17/9/1815 (SBI and IGI), even a suggestion of 28/5/1815 (SBI)
Henry (born unknown SBI, 31/5/1815 IGI), bapt 31/5/1815 (IGI and SBI), maybe 17/9/1815 (SBI)?
No other children obvious in Suffolk, but there probably were some in indexes not transcribed.

Notes - As a general comment, the transcriptions of baptism etc seem to be inconsistent, for the same person between GREENBERRY and GREENBURY. Given this, all the people with this name have been called GREENBERRY pending my own investigations of the registers, on the basis that this appears to be more common, and is probably the original name.
The Woolpit register transcriptions have a Jane Greenberry marrying Thomas WOOLSEY 26/4/1803. (There is also a Jane Greenbury marrying William Gardiner JACKSON on 9/1/1827, but the census returns suggest that this is very unlikely).
