Biography contributed by Katherine Blakeley

Margaret was born about 1820 in Ireland.

About 1880 she emigrated to New Zealand with her husband Thomas Morrow, a bootmaker, and their three children.

They settled in Dunedin and when Margaret signed the suffrage petition the family were living in High St, Maori Hill.

Thomas died at their home on 8 November 1902 and Margaret died soon after on 10 November – they are buried together in the family grave in the Northern Cemetery.
