Margaret's parents were Thomas Dillard Isbell Sr and Nancy Anne Poindexter Kerr.

Margaret married Wesley Goldsmith on April 24, 1811 in Libertyville, Casey County, Kentucky.

October, 2018: the burial site for some of the members of the Daniel Beasley and Wesley Goldsmith families is no longer unmarked. I purchased a monument that marks the cemetery site. This site is located off Garrard Ford Lane off of Piney Grove Loop off of Cerro Gordo Road near Olivehill in Hardin County, TN. Many years ago, Mother, Daddy, Mother’s sister, and her cousin visited the area. They talked with Mrs. Lillie McMullen Clausel, a Goldsmith descendant, who told them the cemetery location and many of the names of our ancestors who are buried there. In all these years, there has been only one engraved stone, which is now missing. Field stones marked the burial spots. The land now belongs to a lumber company which gave us permission to place the marker. We are so grateful to them and to Mr. Jimmy Nesbitt of Savannah who has for many years farmed in the area and been sort of a caretaker for the spot. We’re also indebted to my mother, Margaret Clark Norville, her cousin Sara Margaret Goldsmith Maynard, her cousins Dillard Goldsmith and Betty Awtrey White, her sister Rebecca Sue Clark Davis, and many others for their years of genealogical research, begun before the days of email and social media. ~Carol Norville Berning
