Her headstone gives her year of birth as 1858, but the 1860 Census indicates she was born that year (1860), and that age is reflected in future census records. Many Conner family trees have Maggie's first husband as a "Sheppard", but it was actually her 2nd husband who was a "Shepard".

Margaret "Maggie" Conner was born in Jackson, Henry County, Iowa to Moses G. Conner and Mariah Moberly. She had her first child, Silva Conner, in 1879. She married William Clark Hewitt by 1885, and with him had 3 children: Victor, Meda, and Caleb. William had died by 1920, and she remarried to William Shepard on 1 Jun 1921. She died in 1932 in Keokuk.
