Witnesses at her birth were George Morrison and John ??. George Morrison was also a witness at her husband, William Jones' birth. He was an elder of the church and a sailor in Cockenzie.

I have not found a record of her in the 1841 Census so she may have been deceased by that time, although no record of that has been found either.

Margaret married William Jones **, son of John Jones ** and Agnes Young **, on 14 Feb 1801 in Tranent, East Lothian, Scotland. (William Jones ** was born on 6 Sep 1781 in Cockenzie, East Lothian, Scotland, christened on 16 Sep 1781 in Tranent, East Lothian, Scotland, died on 16 Jan 1840 in Prestonpans, East Lothian, Scotland and was buried in East Churchyard, Prestonpans, East Lothian, Scotland.). The cause of his death was Burned.
