I would like to know what her dates of birth and death might be as well as where she might be buried. Margaret had a dress and hat shop in Altamont ca. late 1880-1900. The name of the shop was "Jones and Clark" and her partner's name was Phoebe (Phebe) Clark. Phebe was my gguncle's daughter; she died in the fall of 1900 at the age of 24. Her parents were John S. Lewis Clark and Harriet E. Noah Clark. Phebe's younger sister Esther also worked in the shop. After Phoebe's untimely death I believed the shop closed as since Phoebe's estate papers indicate a sell-off at auction of a large inventory of dressmaking items which would be necessary to construction a dress/hat etc. Margaret might have been her aunt, but I don't know for certain as I need her maiden name and her dates to confirm this. Can you help me out? Thanks!
