Her baptism is on Scotland's People, so if you have / buy some credits, you would be able to check the image to see if there is any extra information.

No mother's name but it does tell me that they came from Meadow Side in Seggie, P of Orwell.

However, looking at births and baptisms in Orwell 1760-1800, Alexander Mailer has five children - Janet in 1772, Margaret in 1775, Christian in 1777, John in 1784 and Mary in 1786. The last three have a mother's name, Mary Reid. As Margaret's first child was Mary, this is likely to be her mother.
