FamilySearch.org's Pedigree Resource file has 76 user submitted records for Margaret with various birth dates. Most range from 1750-1760 and I have used about 1755. I have not seen a solid source for a more exact date. - FR

Death

Date: 1805

Place: Newberry, South Carolina, USA^[5]

Date: BEF 1793

The same FamilySearch.org records mentioned above nearly all give a death date of before 1793, or give no date at all. I don't know how that date was determined and I can't vouch for its accuracy. LATER: I have since seen information stating that Notley (or Nodley) Masters remarried in 1793 "after Margaret's death." I still don't have documented proof on that, but I now know the origin of the "before 1793" date. - FR

From the page Notley & Hillery Masters:

"Notley married Mary Hembree in Pendleton District, South Carolina on July 30, 1793. The rites were performed by a Baptist minister, William Bennett. The marriage must have been fairly soon after the death of Notley's first wife, Margaret Duckett. Very little is known of his first family other than the fact that he had at least three sons Richard, John and William."
