As she held her recently born great-grandchild, William, named after her, the American woman stated, \u2018I am just thinking about how lucky I am,\u2019 according to People. <\/p>\n
Her family has said in the past that she tries her hardest to be present for every graduation and baptism. <\/p>\n
Christine Balster, her granddaughter, reportedly told a local TV station that her grandmother \u2018has created an amazing legacy spanning through generations,\u2019 according to the Daily Mail.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Conversely, Marguerite had thought about going to a monastery and becoming a nun. She applied to enter the communal convent while she was a junior in high school, <\/p>\n
but William Koller of Manayunk \u2018talked me out of it,\u2019 according to a 2015 interview she gave to 6 ABC, according to the Daily Mail.<\/p>\n
Marguerite was determined to have a large family ever since she gave birth to their first child during the Baby Boom, which followed World War II.<\/p>\n
US’s largest family
\nThe American woman said to 6 ABC, “l\u2019I think it is difficult being an only child\u2014it is lonely.\u2019 She further said, “I wanted to have a big family.\u2019<\/p>\n
According to the Daily Mail, she said that although she had originally planned to have twelve children, she \u2018was not sure I wanted that many” after having them. Rather, <\/p>\n
she made her selection from 11 children born over almost 20 years. In addition to 100 great-grandchildren, she has 56 grandchildren.<\/p>\n

Since her husband’s passing in 2008, she has attributed her hectic schedule and sense of blessing to her huge family on each holiday.<\/p>\n
In order to honor both of her grandparents, Christine Balster, Marguerite’s granddaughter and the mother of <\/p>\n
the 100th great-grandchild, said that she and her husband, Patrick, intended to name their newborn son after them.<\/p>\n
\u2018My husband liked the name Kole, and it felt very natural to name him Koller with William as the middle name,\u2019 she said to NBC Philadelphia. <\/p>\n
