   http://www.uua.org/uuhs/duub/articles/margaretlaurence.html
   
   Extractions: Margaret Laurence (1926-1987), a much-loved Canadian author, was one of the great novelists of the twentieth century. Her stories feature strong women and their struggles for self-understanding and acceptance. She was known for her outspoken support of peace, women's rights, and other progressive causes. Jean Margaret "Peggy" Wemyss was born, raised, and is now interred in the Canadian prairie town of Neepawa, Manitoba. Peggy was the child of Robert Wemyss, a lawyer, and Verna Jean Simpson. Verna died when Peggy was four years old, and Robert, after an interval, married his late wife's sister, Margaret Campbell Simpson. He died when Peggy was ten. Her stepmother, a teacher and a librarian, was a comfort in her childhood and was always one of her "greatest encouragers." Another dominating influence in her young life was John Simpson, her maternal grandfather in whose home she and her stepmother lived. In her book, A Bird in the House , 1970, he is portrayed as a tyrannical autocrat. Later in life she commented, "I hated him for a long time, even after his death. Now I have a kind of respect and admiration for him."

Her mother, Verna Simpson Wemyss, died in 1930 when Margaret was only four years old; her father Robert Wemyss, who later married Verna's sister, passed away only five years after the death of his first wife.
