He listed his wife Margaret's birth date of 24 May 1891. They had 7 children: Margaret 16Dec1909, Cahterine 25 Dec 1912, George (my father) 6 July 1914, Annie 21 March 1916, Francis 7 August 1919 and John 3 June 1921. My grandmother Margaret did die in 1954. My only memory of her was lying in a bed by the kitchen when my family went over for either Thanksgiving or Xmas dinner. She was ill and dying from cancer at the time. I was 4 years old. My father was not close to his parents. We only saw them briefly during either Xmas or New Years and sometimes Easter so I don't know a lot. The information I have collected over the years is slight and unorganized and since I am still working I haven't had the time to do any organized research myself. What you have told me of Margaret Bibby is more than I knew. Thank you. Perhaps in the future you can email me ! directly with questions or informations at gm4858@live.com.
