About Margaret Viers

According to Google book search: Margaret Ferrell came from Virginia and parents were from Ireland. For other Viers info: http://sites.rootsweb.com/~viers/51.will.html

She most likely died before 1850 as she does not appear on the census. Elisha appears on 1850 census with Susannah McKisson (possibly a daughter or grand-daughter) Margaret may have died and is buried in Jefferson County, Ohio where they lived in the early 1800's.

Per contributor #47156258: You have Margaret Vier's burial location as North Macedonia Cemetery in Northfield, Summit, Ohio. I don't think this is correct. She is clearly alive in 1820 when they lived in Island Creek Township, Jefferson, Ohio. But in the 1830 census in Jefferson County, Ohio, in Elisha's household there is no female Margaret's age in the household indicating she was probably deceased. Many other of the Viers / Veirs family members who lived in Island Creek Township were buried in the Island Creek Cemetery in Toronto, Jefferson, Ohio. I suspect that is where Margaret is buried but without a tombstone.
