Update from me (20 November 2018):


Nenek Che Mah was the younger sister (adik) of Nenek Inchek.

Nenek Inchek was born circa 1907 (from Hindun, Pak Amin Pasar's 2nd wife).

Nenek Che Mah was born in 1918 (from Anjah, Pak Amin Pasar's 3rd wife).

Nenek Che Mah was the first wife of Tok Rashid, Serdang.

Tok Idris (suami Nenek Busu) was the youngest brother of Nenek Che Mah, from the same mother (Anjah).

Nenek Che Mah, Tok Idris, and Nenek Inchek are sibs. Nenek Inchek dari ibu lain.

From Pak Cik Hassan bin Mohd Rashid (WhatsApp 20 November 2018):


His mother is Che Mah bt Mohd Amin (anak Pak Amin Pasar).

Che Mah bt Mohd Amin's mother is Anjah (3rd wife of Pak Amin Pasar).

Che Mah is the eldest of Anjah's children.

She died in December 1975 in Mina semasa azan waktu fajar pagi Jumaat. Selepas wuquf.

I think my nenek is Anjah.

Nenek Anjah and Nenek Enjah were sisters. 

So Tok Ali and Nenek Rahmah were cousins.

Nenek Rahmah was adik TS Majid.

----------
Clarification from me, 
based on information from Pak Cik Hassan and my interview with Tan Sri Dr Abdul Majid (for my research and book on The Early Malay Doctors):

Nenek Anjah and Nenek Enjah were two sisters.

Nenek Anjah married to Pak Amin Pasar (as his 3rd wife). Pak Amin Pasar died sometime in 1936, before the Central Market was built and before Pasar Chow Kit brick building was built in 1955.

Nenek Enjah married to Pak Ismail Nekmat. Pak Ismail Nekmat died of malaria towards the end of the Second World War (WW2) in 1945. He was working in the railway repair yard.

Pak Amin Pasar and Pak Ismail Nekmat died 9 years apart.
