• Origins:

seen as the daughter of Daniel Wood and Hannah Wood without supporting evidence. It seems unlikely as they were a CT couple who married on 05 Dec 1764 and this Margaret is seen as born in Tennessee or Virginia in 1763. There are birth records for other children of that couple, and they did not have a daughter Margaret. See the sources at https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/4:1:LZNX-8LF. A cursory search for alternative parents on April 14 2020 proved unsuccessful.
