Daughter of Jacob Fore and Elizabeth Fore. Birth year of 1837 is estimated by Fore family researchers as exact documentation is not available.

Married to James D Edwards on January 15, 1871 in Jefferson County, Iowa. She was his third wife. Note: James later married (but later divorced from) Emma Farnsworth Sartelle McCaddon at Polk County, NE. on Oct. 6, 1897.

Presumably Margaret is buried next to James D Edwards, but this contributor doesn't know for sure. The headstone may be simply "Mrs. James Edwards" with no dates.

Caution: it is possible that the "Mrs. James Edwards" headstone (if there is a headstone, which there may not be one according to Beth Sparrow) may not be for Margaret, but now that his first two wives are accounted for, and he divorced from Emma, it was possible that Margaret was either buried in this cemetery or in Seward, NE.

Update: per edit request, a plot location for Margaret has been accepted for this cemetery listing, so it appears that she was indeed buried in this cemetery and not in Seward, NE.

Information for this memorial partly drawn from Jefferson County Iowa genealogy family group sheet information on the Jacob Fore family and notes by researchers.
