===================================================
From the 1900 census for Orel, Wayne Co., IL, it would appear that Margaret had remarried (to someone by the name of Estes) and been widowed again.
In addition, two grandchildren (Pelina Johnson, age 8, female; and Johnny Johnson, age 5) were living with her and her son Joseph. Whose chilren are these?
The 1900 census also report that Margaret had had 7 children, but only 3 were living.
Could she have had 2 children with her second husband who did not survive?
