I just doublechecked Elizabeth Logan. In 1900, says married, mother of 6 children, 3 living. In 1910, says married 36 years, 6 children, 6 living.
So perhaps George was alive and became a wire cutter and they are separated.
I did find their son George who married Mary Ellen Waldron in 1905, 1910, and 1915 but in 1915 he is living with his sister Eliza Wilson along with his two sons. Could Mary Ellen/Ellen/Ellia have died between 1910 and 1915? Perhaps abt 1911 when son Daniel F. was born?
In 1910, George is living with his inlaws Charles and Helen Waldron and she has had 16 children, 5 living. https://www.rootschat.com/links/01tnq/

Parents of Alexander Nesbitt Telford were William Telford and Jane Patterson, that is probably where
the sister of William Johnston got her middle name Patterson - Jane Patterson Johnston born 12 October 1869 Chirnside Berwick. Parents of both William and Jane Patterson Johnston were George Johnstone and Jane Telford.

That left John Crawford with the family in 1925, he was a cousin.  Aged 74 years.  So born about 1851.
Noted that he either had a carpet shop or worked in a carpet shop in Essex New Jersey in 1892

Note John C Crawford was living with Margaret Telford - at Oliver Avenue in 1910.
John C Crawford was a shipping clerk for a carpet shop and a cousin to Margaret Johnston Telford.

Andrew McLean 29 Boarder

Thanks for all these latest obits. There is a mistake in the obit of Jean Telford in 1966. Her parents should be Alexander Telford and Margaret Johnston, not George Telford.
William Johnston who married Annie McArthur Wilson had 2 sisters named Jane Patterson Johnston, one Oct 12, 1869 and one Mar 24,1878 so the first one must have died young.
There were two Logan boys on the 1915 census, one was Daniel F. Logan born abt 1911, presumed both were the sons of George Logan, Jr. I will have to check the sons of Daniel F. Logan, George's brother, to see if he had a son Daniel F. Logan in 1911, otherwise must be George's son.
One more typo on findagrave - George Logan who died 1930 was born 1876 not 1867.
Edit - I see the latest Logan obits. I did have the date of death for George as Oct 1, 1930 as his burial is Sept 3, 1930 in Oakland Cemetery. Thanks again.
