Margaret Williams Gerwig (b. Aug 1887) was born to David Thomas WIlliams and Mary Jenkins in Pittsburgh, PA. She married Albert Gerwig in 1908, and was living at 904 Bingham St in 1910.
In 1920, there was an Albert Gerwig born the same year as Margaret's husband, but was married to a Catherine. Since there is no sign of Margaret, it may be strong evidence that Margaret had died before 1920, and Catherine was his second wife. That said there is no death record for Margaret that has yet been found.
Margaret died at 7pm on 18 Feb 1932 of an acute hemorrhage and pancreatitis while at the Homeopathic Hospital in Ward 7 of Pittsburgh. At the time of her death she was married to Alfred Schnupp. She was laid to rest at the South Side Cemetery on 21 Feb 1932.
