I've been searching away on your Margaret most of last night! With torrygirl's link and the additional info that Margaret was Margaret Ann and further confirmation  that her birth was probably in Moray, I've finally found her!

She was illegitimate, mother Mary Milne. Her birth was 7 December 1875, in the Parish of Urquhart, Moray. I've found her in the 1881 Census living with mother Mary who is now a Cameron having married in 1880 an Alexander Cameron.

Mary Milne/Cameron, daughter Maggie Ann Milne age 5 and baby half-sister Eliza are living with her sister Margaret and husband Robert Allan (witness at Mary Milne's wedding) and family in Speymouth Elgin in the 1881 Census.

I've got further details, if you can send me a PM with contact email.
