At the latter event, Edgar was as old as John and Ethel together. The combined ages of all of the children are now double Mrs. Wilson's age, which is, in fact, only equal to that of Edgar and James together. Edgar's age also equals that of the two daughters. Find all of their ages now.(clue: two of them are twins)
