Some people have falsely interpreted this to mean that Arthur's wife, Margaret, was the mother of Lydia Reed, the wife of Arthur's son, Arthur, Jr. However, the problem with this logic is that the reference appeared several years before Lydia and Arthur, Jr. were married. The better interpretation is that Margaret was previously married to a Mr. Walker who died soon after the son's birth and John Walker is actually the step-son of Arthur Howland, Sr. | |
