Margaret Anne Hutchison, also referred to as Margaret Annie, was born some time around 1840. She lived in New York City with her parents William and Margaret A. Hutchison and some siblings. She attended Charles Street Scotch Presbyterian Church where she was married to Captain Alexander Mitchell Douglass of North Carolina. She gave birth to fraternal twins, a boy and a girl in 1864. It is not known how long the twins lived but there is not a record of them beyond their birth announcement in the newspaper. She gave birth to a daughter Annie Isabell Douglass and died a couple of weeks later, likely in complications from childbirth. Her daughter later became First Lady of Florida as wife of Governor Napoleon Bonaparte Broward.
In her funeral announcement family and friends are invited to leave for the funeral from the home of her parents at 179 8th Avenue in NY, NY. In reading about burials in NYC at that time residents were beginning to use the cemeteries in areas outside of the city such as in Brooklyn or Queens.

There are some 300,000 people interred at Cypress Hills Cemetery with 35,000 transferred from graves in Manhattan.
