Search the Dictionary Notes for Contributors Information Form Contributors Unitarian Universalist Association ... Notable American Unitarians Margaret Laurence 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."

Jane Urquhart Margaret Laurence Margaret Laurence's life began on July 18, 1926 in the prairie town of Neepawa, Manitoba. Born Jean Margaret Wemyss, Laurence suffered the loss of her parents at a very young age. 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. Raised from then on by her aunt/stepmother, a teacher and librarian, and her maternal grandfather, Laurence's love of literature and of writing flourished with her aunt's encouragement and guidance. Having begun to write in the second grade, Laurence decided early in life to become a writer. She began writing professionally in 1943 when she got a summer job as a reporter for the town newspaper and in 1944 she enrolled in the Honours English program at Winnipeg's United College (known today as the University of Winnipeg). There, she began to publish her stories and poems in Vox , the United College newspaper of which she later became assistant editor. In 1947, after graduating with her BA from United College, Laurence went on to become a reporter for the
