I did what you said and it changed the placement the
margin on the page. But when I go into page setup, it
still reads side margins of 1.25" If there any way to
change this default to 1" on both sides?

Use instead the menu FILE PAGE SETUP to set overall
margins.

It is possible to set the indents for a style in FORMAT
PARAGRAPH
Thus if my Normal style has indents of 1" and my page
margins are set
at 1.25", my normal paragraphs will actually appear to
start at 2.25"
from the edge of the page.

If I know that the page margins are set at 1.25" I could
set the Normal
paragrah to have indents set at "minus point 25 inches"
(that appears
as -0.5") so that they start one inch from the page but I
think you
will find that using FILE PAGE SETUP is the better way
