Margaret's father died in 1865, and it appears Margaret has come in to her inheritance, which must have been substantial for Margaret to have received a sum this large, especially considering the sums inherited by her brothers. Listed next to Margaret's brother, James EDER (? 49, b. PA, $5000, wife Sarah), who is next to Margaret's brother, John EDER (? 35, b. PA, $4000, wife Sarah).
