Note - it appears that there were two wives named Margaret. The Margaret listed in the 1860 census would have been born in 1833. Margaret E. Lindsey is thought to have been born in 1841.

From my [Earl's] cousin Nicole:

Philip Wolf had 2 wives - Margaret Jane Lindsey and Margaret Ellen Lindsey (Nicole's G-G grandmother; my dad's step G grandmother). The two women were 1st cousins - not uncommon at the time. Margaret Jane Lindsey died in 1860 shortly after the birth of a child.
