 :) :)

 Carrying on trying to find the 2 daughters-Nicholas and Margaret Jane.

Just some very sketchy thoughts:

Nicholas Anderson
 in the California, Marriage Records from Select Counties, 1850-1941
Marriage Date:   17 Sep 1902
Marriage Place:   Alameda, California
Spouse:    John D McConnell

I think Nicholas has become Nettie/Nellie.

1920 census:
https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:MH46-PWX
..........
There are Naturalization Records for Margaret Jane HOGG a widow born June 22 1867 Kirkcudbright. One of the witnesses is Nettie McCONNELL of Daly City.
The other is C.B. Kiler a carpenter of Sutter St San Fran who seems to be a neighbour. He is the informant on Margaret's death and makes a bit of a mess of the info.

1910 census Maggie HOGG

(I know it doesn't look like her but I think it is!).

Think you are right Maureen about Nettie/Nicholas
1940:census still Daly City San Mateo California
Ellen Macaulay age 34 married born about 1906 Scotland nurse (travelling companion )
Nettie MConnell age 64 widows  born California think they have the birth places mixed up  ???

There is a death for an Ellen Macaulay  5 April 1960 San francisco birth date 11July 1903
Father John McConnell b Scotland mother as Jeanette Anderson

Oh,excellent,Rosie!! :)

Just looking at the info you found for Ellen got me wondering if they'd made a mistake on Jeanette's surname at the time. It's down as M*donald.
But I guess she re-married:

California, Voter Registrations/ Marin County 1942-1944

At 503 Ethel Ave Mill Valley (same address as given on Ellen's funeral form)
MacDonald Alexander and Mrs. Nickolas N. MacDonald
......
U.S. City Directories 1953 San Rafael,Marin,Ca.
Jeanette and Alexander MacDonald  503 Ethel Ave.
......
California Death Index has Jeanette Macdonald born abt 1876 (says South Carolina but? ) Death 16 May 1963 Marin. She's also on Find a Grave.


Maureen :)

Edit: Nearly posting at the same time,Rosie! ;D
I'm not very good at finding obituaries.
