Marguerite Bell in Bushnell, McDonough County, Illinois

I am looking for information about Marguerite Bell, who may be my great-aunt.

Here is what I know so far:
- Her parents, George D. Bell and Julia L. Heister, were married on April 29, 1896, in McDonough County.
- Marguerite Bell (alternate spellings: Margarite or Margaret) was born sometime in 1897, probably April.
- In 1900, at age 3, she was living with her parents and younger brother in Bushnell.
- In 1910, at age 13, she was living with her parents and six younger siblings in Bushnell.

After that, I lose track of Marguerite/Margarite/Margaret Bell. The 1920 U.S. Census shows George and Julia Bell living in Galesburg in Knox County, IL, with their six youngest children (out of nine total). My assumption is that Marguerite either got married or had died. If she married, I don’t know the name of her husband, or even where they married, though it was probably in McDonough County, IL. If she died, I don't have any idea when or where.

Is she or her parents anywhere in your family tree?
