I just found that :) but looked on this thread again just to make sure it hadn't been posted.

John Toole (Margaret's grandfather on the 1881 census) has a niece Kate Kennedy with him in 1901, age 30, single, born Grimsby. This could be her in 1871 - Catherine age 4, daughter of John Kennedy, age 43, a widower born Ireland:

It seems her mother's maiden name was Stinson.

Census 1901 also London, George Foster is suddenly 35 and not 50 as would be expected, Maggie Cressey is now 30 and not 25! No wife is mentioned. George's profession is given as Bicycle Maker (fits Maggie's later sporting activities).
Not only have their aged changed but Maggie who was previously his cousin is now his sister-in-law!

This is the Kennedy family in 1861 and the wife is Margaret, age 36, born Hull:

Maybe Margaret nee Stinson is a sister of John Toole's wife Ann? I haven't managed to find a marriage for either couple yet.

In March 1883 there's a George Foster, Bicycle and Manufacturing Company, Queen-street, Willenhall mentioned in the Penny Illustrated Paper - London, London, England. I should think this is the same George, but unfortunately I can't find him in 1881.

That would make sense.

It's surprising that in 1881 John and Ann Toole don't have any children (other than their granddaughter) living with them.

I found a possible Stinson family in Louth, Lincolnshire, in 1851:

The father is Patrick, age 54, a licensed hawker born Ireland. Children James 20, Ann 16, Catherine 14, all born Hull, and Elizabeth 12 born Louth. Just trying to find them in 1841 to see if there is a Margaret.

I know that Ann Toole is only 42 on the 1881 census, but it would be quite normal for her to have lost a few years by then, especially if her husband was younger than her.
