Re: elizabeth & Emma Alexander

Ladylinda thanks for again helping I'm so confused with this family as not sure of who's children elizabeth and emma alexander are as i think they are margaret alexander children as the original picture of census in 1891 Herbert alexander is margaret alexander when you look but transcribed wrong. and i think they are her children but that would make the children grandchildren to Edward and Margaret wadlow. I think they were left with Edward and his wife and then changed the childrens last name to wadlow as on one census they were down as niece's then as there daughters. I think that Margaret left them to start a new life and new family as surname Francis? It's a real mix up and so confused :(
