Julie, who were her siblings? if you do not know, tell us your grandmother's details. If this Aunt was married, as seems to be the story, it is possible the child took on her married name.

PM from Julie says Margaret might have been adopted by relatives, namely her grandmother's sister. Have suggested she tracks down this person or other relatives of her grandmother.
