There are two views on who this Margaret is:

One contributor shows that this Margaret is the daughter of Rev. John Corbly and Abigail Bull.

Another contributor indicates that this Margaret Corbly is NOT the daughter of John and Abigail Corbly of Garards Fort, PA. That Margaret Corbly married a George Morris, not Harris.

----
Here is what another has to add:

The burial for Margaret Morris, in the same cemetery with her parents, has the inscription "formerly Margaret Corbly" inscribed on headstone. He survived her, so she could not have re-married after his death. Also, the various published genealogies for John show his daughter Margaret married George Morris. The headstone on this memorial, although not the best photo, shows her last name as Harris, not Morris. These photos leave little doubt that this woman was not the daughter of John & Abigial. Look at the link in the list of siblings for the two Margarets that are listed to see the other one.
