There is confusion around this profile (see supporting data below).

I believe she has been confused in the pedigrees with a later Margaret Mostyn daughter of Sir William Brereton, MP who married Sir William Mostyn as his 2nd wife; they had no surviving children.

THIS Margaret then would have only married (as far as we know) to the earlier William Goodman of Chester.

Please raise a discussion with evidence otherwise.
