[PW] Re: ? another name for mother-in-law

[Mary Barna]

I would like to thank everyone who responded to this query.  There were
a lot of great responses.  When I learned how to introduce people (we
had manners lessons in our English class) we were told to introduce the
young person to the older person and give a little information about
each.  "Miss Jones, this is my friend from New York, Helen Smith."
"Helen, Miss Jones was my first grade teacher."  That's why the double
in-law thing came up, especially when most people (small town) know one
or the other of the in-laws.
