The long awaited story of Emily-Jane Hills Orford’s grandmother has finally been published. This is the story of Margaret Murray Downer (née Dickson), who was born in Glasgow, Scotland in 1902. Her life spanned the twentieth century and two continents. She was a vital force alive and a fond, beloved memory after her death. She was full of love, laughter, tears of joy and sorrow, and, most importantly, stories. She was a vivid storyteller and a great friend, companion, and, for the author, a wonderful grandmother. When she passed away, Margaret left a wide collection of notebooks full of her daily jottings. She had written something each day of her life. One of these journals was a scratch pad entitled, Personal Notes. This is Margaret’s story, jottings of a life well lived, as recalled and remembered by her granddaughter, the author.
