So it's Mary then,with so many kids they probably forgot what they christened her!
I think that your right she was Mary in the 1861 census,
I'm beginning to feel really sorry for poor old Margaret

Cassandra,
Thanks
Poor Margaret's life isn't getting any better,a Parochial lodging house sounds like the poor house or something to me.
