  • Name Fleming, Margaret 
    Nickname Em

    Gender Female 
    Also Known As Emma in some records 
    • A descendant has pointed out the confusion over her name, as follows: "...But in this census her name shows as Margaret, like that of her mother Margaret Rose Fleming and her grandmother Margaret Cantrell Rose. If I recall correctly, on that census the three Margarets all appear on the same page. On subsequent censuses my great grandmother's name appears as Emma (never Emiline or Emily). In everyday life, she was called Em. My speculation is that the nickname "M" for Margaret (distinguishing her from the older Margarets) became Em and then Emma, but that's just a guess. No one in my family is aware of great grandma Em's name as ever being "Emiline..."
