Margaret J TELFORD was born near Cartter, IL in 1852, the 3rd of 9 children of Samuel G TELFORD & Mary (BALDRIDGE) TELFORD.

Excerpt from "Portrait and biographical record of Clinton, Washington, Marion and Jefferson Counties, Illinois...", 1894: "Margaret J. married Dr. Neff, a physician living in Missouri; she is a graduate of the State University of Michigan at Ann Arbor and is an accomplished and intelligent lady."

In the 1900 census, she was living with her sister Mary Alice TELFORD in rural Gentry County, MO, listed as head of household, working as a farmer & medical doctor, and married for 17 years. It appears her husband was living elsewhere at the time.

At this point, the exact circumstances surrounding her death in 1902 (especially cause & place of death) and her burial next to her sister Clara Belle (TELFORD) ARNOLD in Bloomington, IL remain a mystery.
