The meaning of the terms "step-son" and "son-in-law" were the same in the 19th century as they are today.

Your step-son is and was the son of someone you marry after that person's spouse, the other parent of the son, has died or been divorced. You are then i the position of being a surrograte parent to the step-son, without being the biological parent, and without formally adopting him.

Your son-in-law is and was the husband of your daughter.
