Interestingly Kate Sheratt and Mary A Snook are together in 1891 as visitors in the house of Emma M A Jones School Mistress in Acton Middlesex.  Obviously good friends.

Don't confuse the Martha - read again, its brother Henry's entry!

So two wives, Mary Ann and Emma

Oh I see what you mean, another Martha.  I'll check the scan.

Great start, looks like a good choice again!
