I believe the spelling problem «/i»[of the surname] «i»is a result of a newspaper advertisement
about the probate -
From the Washington Gazette, 4-26-1820

| 15. | Susan Monroe Grayson was born in 1743 in Belle Air, Prince William Co., Virginia, USA (daughter of Col. Benjamin Grayson and Susannah Monroe); died in 1822 in , , Virginia, USA. Notes:
Susan (or Susannah) Monroe Grayson
The Williams reference and ref 3 say that Susan married Lund Washington and had Lund, Susan Jean, and Peater Grayson Washington. Other references say it was Susannah Monroe Grayson [19599], who married Lund Washington and had these children. Lund Washington, b. 1767, is much closer in age to Susannah [19599], b. 1767, than to this Susan, b. 1743. The Williams reference is probably in error.
Ref 1 says Susan was born in 1738. Ref 2 says she may have been born in England.
