Yes, I have seen this 1911 before - Richard Swales shown here was an uncle of Margaret, but also his son, John, married an Eliza Jane McClean, born c. 1880.

Hmmmmmm.

I'll have a look for a death for Margaret.

Thank you.

Peter

Peter Report 28 Dec 2012 20:05

No I can't see a probable death for a Margaret McClean ... any other ideas?

Peter

Peter Report 28 Dec 2012 20:12

Is there no sign on the 1901?

Thank you Jeremy - I really don't know but thanks for pointing that out. Hmmmm, can we spot the family on the 1901 as that would help tremendously.

Well that matches the birth places and year I suggested. Hmmmmmm, I think this might be pieces together. But the death is a long way from home - still, these people moved a lot.

What do you think?

Thomas Richards is shown on image as single and Head

Margaret shown as married 17 years. 5 children born and 5 still alive

Emmett might be Emma (?) on image
