Margaret is the widow of Peter LATOURETTE. I have other data that states
they were married in November. I will have to dig out that source document.

I don't know who Catherine STOUT would have been, sister, cousin, sister in
law. Not sure.

I hope everyone is enjoying these little tidbits as much as I am.
