Research Notes

Margarita was born in 1709. She passed away in 1751.

According to the History of Saratoga, her father was an English physician who emigrated to the United States in 1720, settling in Albany, New York.^[7] This source seems to get all of the dates off by about 10 years, so more research will need to be done to verify.
