According to the book, "Compassionate
Revolutionaries, The Moravian Ancestors of George W. Bush", by Fred J. Milligan:
"On April 7, 1812, she married John Flickinger at the home of her parents. John Flickinger's parents , Michael and Mary Flickinger, lived in the northern part of the county, on a farm along Sandy Creek near Sandyville. Margaret went to live with her husband there. Margaret and John Flickinger did not have a long marriage, though. John
died Nov. 4, 1824, at the age of 37, according to Milligan. As a widow with six small children, Margaret didn't remain single for long. On Jan 8, 1826, she married James Tracy, whose family rented a farm near Gnadenhutten from
the Moravians. The newly married couple farmed Margaret's property on Sandy Creek for a few years before moving to Rush Township. James Tracy purchased a farm near Newport in 1833 for $2,000. Margaret died before 1850, and James Tracy died in 1889."
Margaretha died on January 17, 1849 in Newport, Tuscarawas County, Ohio, and was laid to rest at Old Sandyville Cemetery.
