Am i mistaken to think of this as unlikely regarding the “Mary’s midwife” part?

There is certainly nothing in scripture to suggest Salome was the midwife for Mary with Jesus. She's only mentioned in visiting his tomb.

In 2004, the stepped remains of the ancient Siloam Pool, long thought to be located elsewhere, were uncovered near the City of David. According to the Gospel of John, it was at this sacred Christian site that Jesus healed the blind man.

The Siloam Inscription is one of my favorite archeological discovery stories.

Mine too. I had the privilege of seeing it, and wading the tunnel in about 5 years ago.
