McBrides' cemetery book, 1972 edition, p. 215, says:

GALLOWAY, Margaret, consort of John, . . . died at "a. in 89th [see photo: it actually says 80th] yr. 'Our Grand-Mother' (On ss with Samuel E. HIBBEN, et al, Eliza Hibben CUMMINGS, Lavina Hibben DILL)."

NOTE: The math doesn't make sense. She was born in 1771 and died in 1850, so she was 79 -- i.e., in her 80th year -- instead of 89.

Thanks to fellow Find A Grave contributor George Hibben for this additional comment:

"The memorial transcription reads: 'Our Grand--mother MARGARET Consort of JOHN GALLOWAY born Jan. 10, 1771: died Feb. 10, 1850; in her 80th year Where now _____ still lie, and ____ will ___ _____.' The poem was not legible in 1998 and most likely has been dissolved by acid rain. McBrides' cemetery book must be in error."

which calls her "of York County, Pennsylvania," and says she was the daughter of Robert Smith and Elizabeth Buchanan.

It also says she married John Galloway (1772-1829) on 24 Mar 1796 in Gettysburg, Adams Co, PA.
