• Name	Margaret Ann Irwin  [1, 2]
  Born	19 Nov 1853	Northumberland County, Pennsylvania   [1, 3, 4, 5]
  Gender	Female
  Died	4 May 1926	Stanwood, Snohomish County, Washington   [1, 6]
  Buried	6 May 1926	I.O.O.F. Cemetery, Mount Vernon, Skagit County, Washington
  Notes	Jake Schopf writes that Margaret relatives had lived across from the Susquehanna River from Lewisburg for generations. Both he and J.M. Ingalls indicate that Margaret is the daughter of Joseph K. IRWIN and Jane LEWIS. However, her death certificate, perhaps in error, lists her father as 'W. Irwin.' At the time of the 1870 census, Margaret appears to have been recently married to Jacob Schopf, and she in Jacob are living in the home of Joseph Irwin. Mt.

  	Jay Ingalls has the Irwin family bible that was owned by his grandmother, a daughter of Johann Jacob (Jake) Schopf and Margaret Ann Irwin. He writes that "the earliest Irwin in the Bible was Joseph K. Irwin, b. 31 Oct 1831, he married Jane Lewis on 20 Nov 1851. Jane Lewis was born on 3 Aug 1831. They are listed in the 1870 census for Northumberland county. Elijah Lewis, age 70, father of Jane Ann (Jeanette) Lewis was living with them. Jacob (Johann Jacob, also called Jake) Schopf, age 22, and Margaret (Margaret Ann Irwin) Schopf, age 18, were also living with them.jay_ingalls@pipeline.com [Source: Post to PANORTHU-L@rootsweb.com titled Mary Emry or Emery b. 24 Jul 1785 Date: Wed, 22 Aug 2001 19:17:52 -0400} The 1860 Northumberland County, PA census shows the family as follows. From the above Bible listing, it appears that 25 year old Jane is his wife. Perhaps the 33 year old Nancy, whose name immediately follows Joseph's name on the listing of household members, is an older sister? #308-302 Irwin, Joseph 25 M Laborer PA Irwin, Nancy age 33 F W PA Irwin, Mary age 74 F New Jersey Irwin, Jane age 25 F PA Irwin, Margaret age 7 F PA Irwin, William 1 M PA Irwin, Hannah 1 F PA Irwin, David 2/12 M PA
