	Perhaps Margaret was with her sister-in-law because she was giving birth to Kate. My ancestors seemed to go to the home of a female relative when giving birth for the first time. It seems she named her child after her sister-in-law. Kath. x

Member Since: January 2004 Posts: 846 Send Message	Many thanks for "all" the replies!The Site went haywire for about five minutes or so!I was most interested in who the Samuel Weaver was as he wasn't with Margaret in 1901,she was apparently with her sister-in-law. Regards William Russell Jones.
