    Margaret J. (dau of Mathias and Mary Hanna Zahniser), b. 1861, d. 1891. "During his many years of blindness 'Maggie' was her father's constant companion and nurse. She was one of those unfamed heroines whose unselfishness makelife's burdens bearable."

    The Zahniser Family History seems to be in error regarding Margaret's birth date, as Margaret is listed as 10 years of age in the 1860 census. As well, the Family History places her between her older brother Robert and her younger brother William in birth order.
