She is the author of this typwritten manuscript written cir 1931 that starts with the ancestors of Philippe de Lannoy who came to America on the vessel "Fortune" in 1621, and traces his descendants to our Stone family in Canada. There are also transcriptions of the entries in Thomas Stone's (1799-?) bible from Ireland. |

| Notes |
- Called "Auntie Mag" by J. Spencer Howell who recalled that she was very interested in her genealogy -- but the interest seemed to dwindle when she found out that one of her ancestors was hung for sheep stealing ! (I'm not aware of who this was)
D. McKeough notes:
"A graduate of the Public General Hospital, Chatham" "in her 97th year, St. Mary's Hospital, London funeral service Logan Funeral Home, London." "Auntie Mag" was a frequent visitor to "Auntie Maude Stone" when I was young. "Diary Vol. III, pg. 1009 7 Jan 1923 - Maggie Stone (who now resides in New York, now here for the holidays). Dad said that she nursed all the Stones and other relatives."
Bradfield notes:
"She was an outstanding nurse" [9, 10]
