Margaret lived with her first husband Ebenezer Redding in Berkley, Massachusetts. After she married Ebenezer Pool, she lived in Dighton, Massachusetts. They likely are enumerated in the 1790 census there, a male over 16 and two females, daughter Tabitha likely living with them. Nothing further has been found about them, but Tabitha continued to live in Dighton and died there.
