I agree with the above responses.
Margaret Thomson marries Dr John Macaffer & Charles Thomson Macaffer is born 1883.
Dr John Macaffer dies in Gore, 1885. Margaret remarries local Gore auctioneer, Ian Simson, and young Charles adopts his stepfather's Simson surname.
Papers Past, Southland Times 29th Sept 1886 has Widow Macaffer & Ian Simson's marriage notice.
