My great grandparents did meet and marry in Edinburgh where Annie's
father Patrick Kelley and her future husband John McFarland both
worked as bricklayers.
And my mother did tell me several times about how her elderly
grandmother Anna could dance the Highland Fling.
But as for the rest....well, every good piece of fiction has some truth to it..
I'm afraid Maggie is the fiction.
But, you know, Annie did name one of her daughters Margaret.
Hmmmm...
