Scotland Lines 24-25, family 39: Margaret Hoge, white female age 84, mother-in-law, widow, b. PA, parents b. Ireland Margaret Douglas, white female age 22, granddaughter, single, all b. PA The presentation implies that these two families are related and living in adjacent housing. For the second household, the "granddaughter" relationship is that of Margaret Douglas to Margaret Hoge, but "mother-in-law" is apparently an attempt to characterize Margaret Hoge's relationship to George Gibson. She is in fact grandmother to the children of George Gibson's wife's sister (Eleanor Jane Hines Robison). Please see "Source Notes" below.

Source Notes

• Relationships in the 1880 census. This extremely interesting census illustrates the extended-family reliance necessary to care for the aged and disabled in those days. George Gibson's wife, Mary E. Hines, is a sibling of George Hines & Eli Hines, enumerated here, and of Eleanor Jane Hines who is not enumerated here. Eleanor Jane Hines' two daughters, Elizrah Robison and Ida Robison, are however listed here. Note that these two Robison daughters are also enumerated in 1880 in their parents' home; see James Robison, Jr. or Eleanor Jane Hines. Apparently they served the Gibson home on occasion.
  (For the parents of George, Eli, Mary E. and Eleanor J. Hines, see Richard Hines, Jr.).
  
  The relationship of Margaret St. Clair Hoge to this family is as follows. She and James Irvin Hogue were parents of Elizabeth Hogue who married Samuel Wimer, Jr.. Grandson Isaac C. Wimer married Margaret Jane Robinson, a daughter of James Robison, Jr. & Eleanor Jane Hines. Eleanor Jane Hines was sister-in-law of George Gibson.
  
  Finally the relationship, if any, of Mchel Gibson (he & family b. Scotland) and George Gibson (he & family b. Ireland)is unspecified. Because of the difference in country of origin, but similarity in ages, the relationship of cousins suggests itself. Western PA is full of Scots Irish who settled in Ireland (some briefly, some for generations) before immigrating to America.

• See gravestone photos on the pages of Archibald Hoge and Mary S. Kelly
• Since Mary S. Kelly was the daughter of Rebecca Wimer, and the granddaughter of Mary Sophia Snyder, it is likely that her middle name was Sophia.
• The 1883 History of Butler County PA, published in 1883, says that "Mrs Hoag is the only survivor". It isn't known when the interview for the history was done, but likely sometime shortly before 1883.
