_________________
Rogers in his “The Book of Robert Burns”, p. 283, writes “Margaret, second daughter, died unmarried, at a very advanced age”.
There are 74 Margaret Thomson deaths between 1855 and 1880, too many to identify hers...
There were 12 Margaret Thomsons born in 1787 +/- 1yrs in the 1861 census. Still nothing to put a handle to.
