Reported age at time of death was 15 years, so if accurate, evidently born about 1841.
Mary Jane Galer's "COLUMBUS, GA: Lists of People, 1828-1852, and Sexton's Reports to 1866" (2000), p. 209, shows: Margaret HUDGINS died aged 15 years of typhoid fever and was buried 14 FEB 1857 (from "January 1 to April 1, 1857, Sexton report," dated 13 APR 1857. The sexton at that time was Thomas NIX). John H. Martin's "History of Columbus," Part 2 (1875), p. 100 (from a version of the sexton's report published in the local newspaper), confirms the record.
This grave is evidently not identifiably marked. Based on the burial date, it would be in either the Old Cemetery section, Section 1, or Section 2, unless it was subsequently moved, as the balance of the Linwood Cemetery area had not yet been opened up for burials.
