Notes for Margaret Mellon
In the 1901 census she was living with her parents at 15 Marton St (?), Port Clarence, Co Durham, aged 10, born in Port Clarence, Co Durham.
In 1911 she was still with her mother and a teacher.
She is thought to have married a Jo Welford of Liverpool and she became a head of a school there, her descendant David Jones confirms the first of these, but not the second!
These are almost certainly her children up to c. 1935, 4 girls and one boy:
