She is listed on the census in 1900 as Christiana but Aunt Vonnie always knew her as Christine. She was probably named after her grandmother as Margaret's mother's name is Christina and her mother also had a sister named Christine. She came to Kansas City after her father's death according to Aunt Vonnie for a visit. She was probably the source of the genealogy story that there was family tree done by her father after the 1900's where it was discovered that Mary Queen of Scots, Andrew Carnegie and Jeanette MacDonald turned up on the tree.
