Conjecture

From the census of 1870, 1880, & 1900, it appears that Maggie (born Dec. 1869), Arabella (age 11 in 1880), and Margate A. (born "Nov. 1871") could possibly all be the same person, Margaret Arabella Plummer. However, it could also be that Maggie was born in Dec. 1869 to mother Lizzie unknown, and Margaret A./Arabella in Nov. 1871 to mother Laura. No additional children seem to have been born to Laura, so possibly these four children of Lizzie's were all that Robert Plummer had. On the other hand, daughter Arabella named one of her daughters Laura; normally that would suggest that Laura was her mother, but it may have been simply a tribute to the woman who raised her.
