Not sure how I typed in the name Margaret there when I wrote this post back in 2016, but clearly it was an error and should have been Frances. <br /><br />I agree that people are products of their time, but as is often pointed out, there are other people who are also products of the same time who did not hold those views.

Do you know anything about Margaret or their family? I agree that Frances' comments are disheartening to us today, but the more I learn about history, the more I see how most people, are a least somewhat, products of their time. For example, parents out of love for their children, often teach protective behaviors that they would not in an ideal world.<br />I found you on a search for Margaret, so do not know anything about your blog--apologies for this sidestep.Cindy Brownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03227747728931617476noreply@blogger.com
