  • Notes 
    • After the death of her mother, Thirsa on the plains, little Margaret cared for her baby step-sister, Louisa (Brown), for about a year. A nipple could not be procured, so little ingenious Margaret fed the baby milk through a goose quill wrapped with a piece of cloth. They became very attached to each other. When they arrived in the Placerville area in California, Mr Brown, her step-father, went to the gold fields, taking his older son, Dan, with him. He left his older daughter, Linda, with the Anciel Twitchell family, who were members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. He left Margaret and Louisa with the Ephraim Twitchell family, who were also members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
