In 1843 the Lambertsons, Johnsons and others removed to what later became Jackson County, Iowa. It was from here that one of her sons-in-law went to California in the gold rush, and that two of her sons went off to battle during the Civil War. After her husband was killed in 1863, Peggy took in and helped raise a local girl who was evidently an orphan. In the 1870's she followed five of her children to Kansas, where she lived out her last days. W. P. Lambertson was the last grandchild she ever rocked.
