Biography

I think she should be classified as a genealogist, she must have compiled or gathered up quite a bit of information about her family, including the Hardwick and O’Hair families. So if you see a reference to the McGill data, this is the source.

Margaret (or Marie) was a nurse and the Census records are a bit confusing because she was often listed as a "boarder" or "live in nurse" in some households.

She never married.

I wish to express my thanks to her for contribution to the genealogy records of my family.
