Notes - Margherita's obit in Foster's says that she attended the one room school house in Newington, was a graduate of Portsmouth High School with the class of 1941 and the University of New Hampshire class of 1944. She also attended Boston University as a law
student. She was working at that time as a title examiner in Boston. During WW II she worked at Camp Langdon and met her husband who was at that time the chief in charge of Navy Detachment at Fort Stark. Margherita was active in Newington
affairs as editor of the "Newington Neighbor" for 25 years, member of the town church, member of the historical society and historical district. She was a 4-H leader for Newington and Greenland, and before 1972 when McIntire Road connected the two parts of town, she ran a branch library in her home in South Newington. Although born in Medford, Massachusetts, Margherita and her family moved back to the family homestead in South Newington in 1931. Margherita was a kind lady who was very interested in family history. One of her "treasures" was a bridal crown of woven flowers and ribbons brought back for the marriage of her great grandmother Maria Louisa de Rochemont. Suppposedly Maria's brother Carsten had bought it back from England.
