Do you think that the origin of the name could be connected to St. Margaret, Queen of Scotland, was the granddaughter of Edmund Ironside?

Margaret, Queen of Scotland

St. Margaret of Scotland

Some interesting points raised there in both your messages, thanks very much. More to look into now.

I know that it is the place rather than the people that you are interested in, but I can't help thinking that, far enough back, the two are going to be the same.
