Biography

Margaret was born Margaret Connor in 1786 in Ireland to John and Bridget. Her estimated birth date is 4 September 1786 based on the years, months and days of 78, 4, and 5 in her death record. It is most likely that she married in Ireland to husband Lawrence Cunningham and gave birth to all of her children in Ireland. I think it's unlikely she was in the United States prior to 1855. She was living in the household of her son John Cunningham in Clinton, Massachusetts during the 1860 U.S. Federal Census. She passed away on 9 January 1865 at the age of 78 while living in Lancaster, Worcester, Massachusetts, USA. Her married name was Cunningham. Her death record implies she was survived by her husband Lawrence, but I don't think that was true. [1]
