a random question

This has occurred to me before, and I bet someone around here knows the answer.

Dahlia Travers and Agatha Gregson: sisters, or not? (Uncle Wiki says they're sisters, but doesn't give a specific citation. So how do we know this? The fact that they share a nephew is not, obvs., sufficient; my nephew has two aunts and we are no relation to each other - not even sisters-in-law, in fact.)

I am glad someone had the answer. I wandered by on Network yesterday and it has been bothering me ever since. I thought they must at least be "blood aunts" [1] as aunts by marriage could never be that possessively interfering.

[1] My mother was once asked ghoulishly "are you a blood aunt"? by a wide-eyed small child at a wedding and it has had vampire-like connotations in our family ever since.
