Margaret Giles, was born in Pennsylvania in 1793, and died in Blissfield on Oct. 14, 1864.
Furthermore, the County of Monroe, to which it was attached, had jurisdiction over a very large tract of territory, and in the more remote portions thereof, especially in the west, the convenience of the people demanded the organization of the new County.

 John and William Baldwin of Bucks county, Pennsylvania
The large wave of Quaker immigrants which moved from England to Pennsylvania in the late seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries included two brothers, John Baldwin and William Baldwin, both of whom settled in Bucks county, Pennsylvania, moving there from the Pendle Forest, in Lancashire.
Of the two brothers, John Baldwin of Makefield township, Bucks co., PA, made his first known appearance in the records at his first marriage in England, in 1697, to Jennet Hartley.
Since John Baldwin of Makefield township came from the same small area of Lancashire as William, and the other known Pennsylvania Quakers named John Baldwin do not make feasible candidates as brothers of William Baldwin, the identity of John Baldwin of Makefield township with William’s brother of the same name is secure.
