David & Margaret are Samuel's paternal grandparents.  Samuel is too young to be the father of more than the youngest two children, so it appears he has married a widow with children from her prior marriage, which is supported by the fact that she's six years older than Samuel — it's very likely that Sarah's husband was killed in the Civil War.  The word "May" was written in a different hand and with pencil.
