Margaret "Peggy" Smith was born about 1772. She married Jacob Gabbard about 1785 and died about 1835.
If Edward Smith had land entries in Burke Co NC in 1778, it is possible that Margaret was not born in Tennessee as stated in the Newsletter. She was also likely a few years older than indicated. (Gabbard Newsletter article on the Pension of Jacob Gabbard)
