Notes:

English abbreviation for Margaret.

This is a very frequent abbreviation for Margaret, occurring in over 30% of entries in the 1841 Census of Aberdeenshire and over 12% of the entries in the 1851 Census for Rathen parish. It will not be found by a Soundex search but many on-line services will cross-index it successfully to Margaret.
