Maggie was born at home, near Norborne, the oldest of 4 children. Maggie was still living on the family farm when she was in her 70s. The family said when they would come to visit her on the farm, one time, they found her lying on the ground under a bull, getting ready to give it a shot. Another time, they found her on top of a big barn, painting the roof. “She was afraid of nothing.” Her children said she was a strict mom, but a good one. While raising her family and working on the farm, Maggie still managed to spend more than 30 years working at The Jones Store. She lived to work.
