Mary Margaret Troxell AKA ( Maria Margarete Traschel). The names in parenthesis were requested by Jacob Carpenter FAG Contributor #46947313. The documentation Jacob attached clearly identifies her as Mary Margaret Troxell which is the present spelling; however, I have also include the German spelling of her father's last name above and referenced the German alternative names as suggested by Jacob thus avoiding a cluttered memorial while still identifying who she was and how she is known to family members.

All of Mary Margaret and John Abraham's children were born in Lehigh County, Pennsylvania except the last son who was born in Hagerstown, Washington County, Maryland. It may have been from Hagerstown that the family bravely set out to join Rev. John Stough in 1787 or 1788 to help establish a new German settlement in the high plateau of the Allegheny Mountains in the western part of what was then Virginia at Carmel now Aurora.
Both Mary Margaret and her husband are buried in the Pioneer Cemetery in Aurora, Preston County, (West) Virginia.
