Margaret was the daughter of Nicholas Baldes/Baltes and Anna Warker. She was born in Walden, Germany, and immigrated to America as a young girl.

She resided her entire life in America in Wilkes-Barre, Luzerne County, Pennsylvania. In 1864, she married Frank Henniges and together they had four children: Nicholas, Anna, Mary and Frances.

Margaret and her husband, Frank, helped run the family liquor business; and after the death of her father in 1881, they took over the business, which was extremely succesful. Margaret's husband died five years before her in 1911, and his estate was worth over $70,000.
