This factual memoir chronicles the life of Maggie Leonard, born to Irish immigrant parents, in rural New York State during the latter half of the 19th century.

The sad downward spiral of her life began shortly after her marriage to a handsome young Irishman named Samuel Carey. That’s when Maggie became Kate. Her life deteriorated after her fourth child was born and she realized she had married an abusive alcoholic.

This is the story of where she came from, her childhood years in Geneseo, NY, her separation and relocation to Rochester, NY and her lonely and tragic death one summer night.
