The widow of Robert F Haskins and a daughter of Attorney Hugh Alfred Garland (1805-1854) and Mrs Anne Powell (Burwell) Garland, she was taken to Saint Louis, Missouri, as a toddler and grew up between Saint Louis, Vicksburg Mississippi, and Lynchburg Virginia.
The Garlands were expelled from Saint Louis and removed to Lynchburg after the outbreak of the Civil War. Margarette's older brother, at least one brother-in-law, and numerous other relatives were killed on Civil War battlefields.
The war left a once proud and aristocratic family nearly destitute.
Margarette (Garland) Haskins married Robert F Haskins in Lynchburg after the war, eventually moving to Kentucky.
Her 1929 Kentucky death certificate gives her correct name (Margarette Garland Haskins) and status as a widow, but erroneously (and carelessly) names her parents as "Hugh A Haskins" (for Hugh Alfred Garland) and "Mary Burrell" (for Anne Powell Burwell).
