Cens-1880 | Jun 1880 | William and Margaret and their young daughter Eleanor were recorded on the 1880 census for Glade Spring District of Washington County, Virginia. The census record contains a blank line below the family, an unusual finding. Perhaps this reflected the census taker's indecision about whether to list William and Margaret's infant daughter, Adah, who died June 12, 1880, about the time the census taker visited the home.2 |
| | Daughter Eleanor, who was recorded in 1880, would die in 1887. Another daughter, Susan, would be born in 1891 and die in 1892. |
Death | 30 Sep 1894 | Margaret died on 30 Sep 1894 of typhoid fever.3 |
