Margaret Ellen Stansberry was my great grandmother. My research has so far found that she was married to my great grandfather on 24 Dec 1879 at George Stansberry's home in Van Buren County Iowa. They lived in Adair County Iowa at the time of the 1880 US Census. The Iowa 1885 Census showed two children, George Rolland Jackman (my grandfather) born Dec 1880 and another son James Bernard Jackman born in Dec 1882. John H Jackman drown in a well on his farm in Adair County in 1890. (information from living relative, passed down). Margaret remarried a William Homer Allaback on 12 Mar 1891. The 1900 US Census shows all four children. Lois L Jackman (Allaback) and Clayton C Jackman (Allaback) still living in Adair county and on the same location. William Homer Allaback passed away in 1912 and is buried in Iowa. Have not been able to trace Margaret, after the death of W H Allaback. Her daughter was living in California at the time of her death in 1955. If anyone can help with the history of Margaret Stansberry (Actual date and place of birth) Margaret Jackman, anything regarding the time and raising of the children, before John's death, or the actual date of his death, or anything with the Margaret E Allaback, history raising the children or where she moved to following the death of W H Allaback. Any information would be most appreciated.
