Notes
a. Note:   In 1900 Census, Margaret had living in her Philadelphia house four (4) boarders as follows: Harry Mc Hugh, age 22, b. PA, Machinist Frederick Griselhart, age 18, b. PA, Laborer James Mckaice, age 48, b. PA, millwright William Brissing, age 20, b. PA, grocery salesman. Since she was a widow by June 6, 1900 per census, assumption for Lewis Sr. death in 1899 may be correct. This is confirmed by Shamokin Farrow Funeral Home Records of burial. 1910 Census, Margaret age 55 living with William G. age 37and daughter-in-law Mary, age 29, son Charles R. age 18, and four boarders: Thomas Jenkins, age 28, his wife of 8 years Bella and son Robert age 5; Thomas Griffith, male, age66, Widow. 1910 Census say Margaret had 9 children and 3 are still living.
