- Margaret met James at a wedding. When James died shortly after the birth of their son, Margaret moved back with her parents on their six acre farm near the present Lake Forest High School. At first she supported them with her sewing. However, cooking was her true talent and chauffeurs of many of the Northshore families would pick her up and drive her to some estate where a big luncheon was being prepared. After her son was a little older whe worked for a catering firm and helped at big social affairs and weddings from Chicago to Milwaukee. She won prizes at local cooking contests. She was known for her baking by members of the family was well. Her nieces and nephews have mentioned her bread and rolls at family gatherings. Margaret had a wonderful memory and is the source of many of the details about the family before 1860. As one of the younger daughters she and her father had many long talks about the family's history and she remembered it to pass it on to later generations. She is remembered as a gentle, loveable, patient woman. She was a small, slightly built woman.
