Still not 100% of her maiden name. Margaret Somebody married Richard Thistlethwaite around 1677 and they had four children together between 1678 and 1685, when her husband Richard died. There is no trace in Dent and district of this wedding. After Richard's death, she then married Samuel Winn on 4 July 1688 in Dent, and had 2 more children. She died on 25 December 1691 in Dent, Yorkshire, at the age of 37. If she was called Margaret Harker, I could not find a Margaret Harker born in Dent itself, but there was a Margaret Harker born 27 Jun 1654 at Muker, some 20 miles NE of Dent, father Adam Harker. She and Richard could possibly have married at Muker, where the wedding records for 1676-1677 are practically illegible. There was another Harker living in Dent around the time of her wedding, a John Harker, perhaps a brother, who witnessed the will of her husband Richard, and also the wills of Richard's parents William and Isabel.
