Margaretha Stierli KC18-RB1 was born 27 July 1684 and died 4 February 1740. Caspar Schneebeli married Margaretha Stierli 12 January 1706. The couple had four children. 

Margaretha's parents: 

are Joyli aka Jacob Stierli b about 1654 LH72-DXJ and Verena Sidler according to Margaretha's birth record. We have Verena's marriage and death record below. We also have Jakob aka Joyli Stierli birth records below.  The 1858 entry is probably Jakob's brother who died in infancy and the 1666 record is Jakob Stierli, father to Margaretha. 

Margaretha's possible mother:

Margaretha's mother Verena Sidler was born on 13 February 1658, in Ottenbach, Zürich, Switzerland, her father, Fridli Sidler, was 44 and her mother, Barbara Staehli, was 36. She married Jacob Stierli on 10 January 1682. They were the parents of at least 2 daughters. She died on 16 December 1724, at the age of 66, and was buried in Ottenbach, Zürich, Switzerland.

Margaretha's sister:

Margaretha had a sister names Susann born 26 Dec 1687.

Margaretha and Caspar had four children:

1. Verena Schneebeli 1707–1707 died at birth

2. Veronica Schneebeli  1709–1746  ​​married Hans Kaspar Sidler 16 November 1728 so she is not with Casper and Margaretha in the 1733 Church Census, had five children including the famous Hans Rudolf Sidler of Ottenbach.

3. Hans Schneebeli 1716–1716  died at birth

4. Anna Schneebeli 17 Mar 1720–1796  is found in the 1733 census below.  Anna married a Rudolf Sidler who was a Feldschreiber or a Field Recorder from Ottenbach. They had four children. See record below:

Death:
Margaretha's death record says she died from Hyrope.

Hyrope:

Endolymphatic hydrops may be either primary or secondary. Primary idiopathic endolymphatic hydrops (known as Ménière’s disease) occurs for no known reason. Secondary endolymphatic hydrops appears to occur in response to an event or underlying condition. For example, it can follow head trauma or ear surgery, and it can occur with other inner ear disorders, allergies, or systemic disorders (such as diabetes or autoimmune disorders).

Symptoms typical of hydrops include pressure or fullness in the ears (aural fullness), tinnitus (ringing or other noise in the ears), hearing loss, dizziness, and imbalance. (VEDA website)

E: Jogli Stierli / Verena Seidlerin
Z: Hanß Bärli / Margreth Gneserin, Drägers Haußfrau
Dräger is a fairly common surname in some regions of Germany - but not a Swiss name; also I don't think it is a variation of a given name; most likely it is a profession - her husband was a Träger (carrier).

I have never seen Hydrope - guess it should be Hydrops, which is a commen name for a fair variety of symptoms.
