In the 1890's Margaret was running a restaurant in Princes Street, Dunedin. She then became the proprietor of the Sussex Private Hotel in George St, Dunedin. Robert Kennard was the hotel's manager.
By 1911 Robert and Margaret had shifted to Wellington. It is possible Margaret was running a boarding house. Robert and Margaret were married at the Registry Office in Wellington on 4 December 1912.
