Teague (1772) Quillin's 1st Wife

 Margaret "Peggy" Nation 

Peggy was born in Surry County, NC about 1772.. She married Teague in 1788 and they had three children: John W 1793, Nancy 1794, Thomas 1802.... and a Lawson researcher who helped me thought that they may have had another daughter, Anna. I'm not convinced of that. Teague walked away from this marriage sometime around 1813. He moved to Kentucky and married again. 

Peggy is living with son John (my ancestor) in 1850. I am thinking that Anna is most likely a child of one of Peggy Nation's siblings. More research in needed to determine who she is. 

The census was taken in early September, and I think Peggy died shortly afterwards... in Scott County, Virginia.
