12.01.2022 Aunt Peggy was born in Mexico was a member of our group when she lived and worked in Busselton from 1964 until her death at Villa Maria in 2004. A book of her memoirs called Aunt Peggy, a Woman of the 20th Century has been published. She has written extensively about her life and times in Busselton, particularly in weaving, potting and spinning. If any of the readers of this page remember her, you may be interested in her memories of those days. She was strong in the Anglican Church and other community projects as well.
