is this Margaret's family? (birth date matches 1915 State Census)
1900 US CENSUS Tom's River, Dover Twp, Ocean, NJ (Sheet 15A, house #347)... "Joseph J. Norcross 73, b. March 1827 NJ.. Rachael 48, b.Oct 1852 NJ, wife, mother of 7 children, 5 living,.. Ephriam 24, b.Dec 1875 NJ, son,.. Britton 22, b.Jan 1878, son,.. Maggie 16, b.March 1884 NJ, daughter,.. Nelson 4, b.March 1896 NJ, son." This Joseph J. Norcross is listed in the 1890 Special Schedule of surviving soldiers of the Civil War, living in Ocean County, New Jersey (page 7), Pvt., Co.E, 3rd NJ Infantry.

1905 STATE CENSUS Ocean County, NJ (page 8, family #176).. "Alexander Evernham 44, b.April 1861 NJ, single, farmer, parents were both born in NJ, he is living with John & Georgiana Strickland family (presumably working on their farm)."

1912 U.S. Pension files ... "Joseph J. Norcross, 3rd NJ Inf., Pension Feb 9, 1891 filed NJ... Rachel P. Norcross filed widows pension June 11, 1912, N.J., Joseph is noted as; died Nov 1, 1911. Bureau notified Dec 22, 1911."

looks like they were recorded twice in 1930, did Margaret move out?;
1930 US CENSUS Island Heights, Ocean, NJ (Sheet 1A, house #7).. "Jacob Newman 45, single,.. Mary J. Newman 64, widowed,.. Benjamin Newman 40, single, brother... and boarders;... Margaret Evernham 45, married,.. Bertha Evernham 10, single,.. Theresa Evernham 7, single."

An unconfirmed family note says that A Mrs. Jackson died in Florida 2008, she was born 27 March 1916 at Tom's River, NJ, her sister was Bertha Momcries and her parents were Alexander Evernham & Margaret Norcross. if this is the correct family, this gives Margaret's maiden name.
