Biography

Margaret Lena Utterback was born 3 Dec 1863 [1] in Claremont, Richland Co., Illinois, USA [2] to Martin Utterback and Eliza Burgess. [2] She married James L. Aldridge on 27 Nov 1895 in Richland Co., Illinois. [3] They apparently had no children.

Research Notes

Margaret's death record has a date of death of 27 May 1944, [1] whereas her gravestone has 1945 as the year in which she died. [4] Since her death record could have had transcription errors (and since it also has her age as 24, when she was clearly 81), this profile uses the year of death used on her gravestone.
