"Margaret was living with her younger children in Lapeer County,
Michigan, in 1850 and 1854. She must not have died until at least in the
1880's, for she is remembered by living members of the family who were
probably born in the 1870's. No grave markers have been found for either
her or John, but they are believed to be buried in the old Ferguson
Cemetery in Lapeer County."
