Margaret McDonald, d/o Oliver Hugh McDonald/ Nancy Eldridge.
Per son, Oscar, family was living in Mayfield, KY when Margaret died in 1888. If she returned to her family ill, or her body was shipped to be buried with her family in AR, why isn't she buried in Hatfield with her parents? The gravestones of Roberta (d. 1936) and Margaret are matching, on either side of husband,Andrew, whose stone is different. Was Margaret reinterred, or was a memorial stone placed for her in Cove when Roberta died after 1936? Did Margaret die in Mayfield or Polk Co?
New evidence found in Sep 2003- AR Deeds show that Andrew Colley purchased his land near Cove in July, 1888, the month in which Maggie died. This gives more credence to the speculation that Maggie did indeed die in Polk, AR where her gravestone lies.
