Biography

NOTE: no proof this Marguerite Foltz married Nicolas Hayes, researching, See Nicolas profile. Girouard-4019 11:55, 16 February 2016 (EST)

Based on the marriage date to Jean Simon Traeger (for which we have a good source), her birth date is likely to be between 1730-1734 (married 16-20). She married Simon Treger in 1750; Simon signed a marriage contract with Catherine Michel in 1752 so Marguerite Foltz must have died before 1752. Simon and 2nd wife had a child Veronica born about 1758. Simon died in 1766.

When would she have married and had children with Nicolas Hayes? I disconnected her from both Nicolas Hayes profiles. Please feel free to correct me if I have this all wrong.
