A family tree on MyHeritage (attributed to Warren Meats) gives her death date as 29 feb 1916 in Adams Co., Ohio. However, another tree, evidently for the same Emma, shows her as the wife of Alleniah William Storer, their marriage in 1899, then residing in Clinton Co., Ohio in 1900 and 1910, her burial in 1916 at Centerville Cemetery, Lees Creek , Clinton Co., Ohio. However, yet another tree, on Ancestry, shows a first marriage to someone named Lowe, by whom two daughters, Addie R. 1889-1920 and Iva M. 1892-1914. The Ancestry tree gives Margaret Ann's death date as 1934, and Alleniah "Allen" William "Doc" Storer's dates as 1851-1922. There is another version on Ancestry, this time with a different set of children, including four Storer children born before 1899. All of these trees give her birth date as 15 mar 1867, confirmed by her death certificate, which gives her parents as John Alexander and "Manda" Perry. A tree on FamilySearch gives some different spellings of children's names, but shows first husband William Lowe b. 1865.

The death record in Webster Co., Iowa contains a serious error, the date of death is written Jan. 2, 1934, but on the next line, the physician certifies that he has attended the deceased from Dec. 24, 1934 until Jan. 2, 1935. The correct date of death is thus 02 jan 1935. The age at death is shown as 70 years, 3 months, 14 days, and the date of birth is listed as Sept. 19, 1864, consistent with 02 jan 1935 as the date of death.
We tried to follow the family through census records. So far, George has not been found in 1880. In 1900, as G. B. Allexander, he is in Clarke Co., Iowa, with wife Mary and children born 1888-1892 in Nebraska. In 1910, he is married, wife Louie, in Lucas Co., Iowa. In 1920 he is in Calhoun Co., Iowa, and in 1930, Webster Co., Iowa. There is a marriage record in Brown Co., Illinois 25 jan 1885, George B. Alexander to Ida A. Gifford, but this is believed to be George Berry Alexander b. 1857 in Adams Co., Illinois.
His first marriage was 10 jan 1888 in Louisa Co., Iowa, to Mary Mae Trimble 1869-1902 (she died in Clarke Co., Iowa). His second marriage was to Lucy Mar Adaline Burns, 29 jan 1903, in Adams Co., Ohio.

Census locations: 1860: Clay Township, Marion Co., Iowa. 1870: Winchester Township, Adams Co., Ohio — from the birthplaces of the children, the family must have moved back to Ohio between 1865 and 1868.
The 1880 census for Adams Co., Winchester Tp., may be incomplete. It comprises Enumeration District 17, covering first the rural township, and then the village of Winchester. However, the last page on the digitized microfilm seems to be a "continuation" rather than a "conclusion" of the enumeration of the village. We have not yet found anyone from this family in the 1880 census.
There are at least two versions of his death record. One says June 5, 1933 in Adams Co., Ohio (this record is on MyHeritage and elsewhere, including a generic reference to a Family Search tree, no source given, and also shows Margaret's death date as August 11, 1915, in Adams Co., Ohio), another gives a date in 1895. The 1933 and 1915 dates have not been confirmed, and raise the additional question of why we have been unable to find either of them in the census records after 1870, the official death records, cemetery records, etc.
