Margaret Ann Drugan ³

   Other names for Margaret were "Margarita" Drugan,^{1 2} "Mary" Drugan ⁴ and Marguritte N. Drugan.^{5 6}

  General Notes:

She was listed on the 1880 US Census as "Mary Drugan" but I believe that was probably an error on the part of the enumerator and her first name should have been listed as Margie, Margaret, Margarita, or whatever variance she was being called at the time.

Assuming that the 2 year old Mary on the 1880 US Census was indeed, Margaret Ann Drugan, then this would also be strong evidence that the 1879 birth year listed on her death certificate was wrong and should have been 1878.

In addition, since there is a separate gravestone which clearly says "Margaret Ann Johnson", then that would likely mean that the other gravestone in the Drugan family plot of the Old Catholic Cemetery which says "Mary Elizabeth Drugan" was likely her 4 year old sister, "Elizabeth Drugan", as listed on the 1880 US Census.

  Noted events in her life were:

• She has alternate birth date of 27 March 1879 and a birth location of Trempealeau, WI.

The birth year of 1879 is not considered to be correct. She was listed as 2 years old on the 1880 census, and provided a birth date of "Mar 1878" on the 1900 census. In addition, on the 1905 Wisconsin State Census, her age of 27 would correspond with a birth year of 1878 but not 1879.
