Can a person born in 1926 have grandparents who married in 1885?
The grandmother could have borne a daughter in 1886. That 
daughter would have been 20 years old in 1906, and could 
have borne a daughter then. Then THAT daughter would have 
been 20 years old in 1926 and borne a child.  So the 
answer is yes.
