[I think that says Mary was a d-l, and widowed. She had 2 kids, still living. John is actually the first child listed. An arrow connects him and Margaret. They were married 8 years, and had 3 children. I think that
means their children are Tennie, Roy, and Ernest. Daisy and Jasper must belong to Mary.]
[But note that the 1900 census shows James with dau Mary 11, and no son besides John.]
