After viewing the actual census, Marguerita Tripp is a cousin not daughter.

Joan

Joan Report 7 Nov 2008 16:42

On the 1901 census (not 1910), Marguerita Tripp is listed as S. Daughter not cousin as on 1891.

Two possibilities but I believe it's the first one, Boarder, because she's unemployed school mistress.

This one is interesting as well because Margaret Tripp is listed as a niece. So did your Lucy marry a cousin (Tripp) after her first marriage?

Why would he call himself Francis William when his name was Thomas James? Is there another individual involved here?
