History - Margaret Hunsaker, the second child of Ane Cathrine Jensen and Abraham Hunsaker, was born at Brigham City. She was born in the house just behind the courthouse, and later moved to the Big House. When she was 10, the family moved to Honeyville. One regular event of Margaret's early life stood out in her memory. That was the calling together in the Big House of each wife and her family to prayer every morning and evening. Each wife was given her turn to lead in prayer, being "mouth in prayer" as they termed it. Also, each child who was old enough was given a turn.

When Margaret was 16 she went to Utah's Dixie with her brother Israel and his wife to help them settle the cotton colony there. She lived in St. George, Washington, and Silver Reef. While Margaret was living in Silver Reef, the family of Amos Hawks stopped on their way from Franklin, Idaho, to Mexico to colonize for the Church. After an interesting courtship, Joshua Hawks, asked for Margaret's hand from her brother Israel, who had been delegated to help select a husband for Margaret by their father. Josh and Margaret were married in the St. George Temple in February 1880.

Immediately after their marriage they started out for Mexico in a company of nine or ten wagons. Apparently, from Margaret's diary, this company made the descent to the Colorado River through the infamous "slot" and then continued southward into what is now Arizona and settled in Mesa. Life was very difficult in Mesa as this was then a barren desert, but Josh and Margaret managed to make out and were very happy together. Maggie's parents sent them $150 to get settled.

There was an incident when a furious storm came up and washed their newly constructed one room adobe house to the ground. As Josh had promised to take Margaret back to see her family one day, they returned to Utah after about a year. They stayed in Honeyville, where Josh worked for his father-in-law in the grist mill for about three and a half years, and then they returned to Mesa, Arizona.

Josh did not have good health in Arizona, so they moved northward to Escalante, Utah. Good land was scarce there and they went back to Honeyville, and then on to Pocatello Valley. For four years Margaret ran the farm there, and for four years more she ran a farm at Portage while Josh helped build the coke ovens at Sunnyside, Utah and the Deseret News Building in Salt Lake City, in order to get cash for the family to live on.

In 1914 they moved to Brigham City, and then after World War I was over, they moved to an irrigated farm near Blackfoot, Idaho. In about 1926, the family moved back to Portage. Because Josh's health was failing, they went back to Mesa during the winters. Margaret died on 12 March 1947 at Tremonton and was buried at Portage.
