"History of Cass Co. Michigan 1825 to 1875" by Howard S. Rogers (Cassopolis, MI, 1875) p. 385, "No name is more frequently met or more prominently identified with the development of the southern portion of Cass County, during the first twenty years of its history, than that of the Silvers, and did space allow, a chapter, detailing their virtues and experiences, could be written, which of itself would be a tolerable history of that locality, but the limit which was place for this volume, in its inception, having already exceeded, I must confine these sketches to the barest minimum. . . Margaret, the sixth child, was born in New Hampshire, in 1799, married Seth Straw in 1817, and came to this County in 1837. She now resides in Elkhart, Indiana. . ."
She married for second time to Leonard or Aaron Kellogg in Cass County, Michigan. per research of D. Lawrence on www.rootsweb.com
