  Note that Birdie's father and Margaret have been married only 1 year according to this census.  The 1910 census reports that this marriage is the second for both Birdie's father and his wife (both their names change in 1910, but the facts fit otherwise).  Her father is Isaac Frank, identified in his record of marriage to Mattie Sledge (Martha/Margaret) as I F Gilbert.  In 1900 he is Isaac and in 1910 he is Frank.
