Biography contributed by Katherine Blakeley

Margaret/Maggie Aitchison was born about 1843 in Ontario, Canada – the daughter of James Aitchison, a farmer, and Margaret.

She came to New Zealand in the early 1860s with her brothers James and William who were both farmers.

When Margaret signed the suffrage she was living at Clarksville, possibly with one of her brothers.

Margaret died at Dunedin on 10 April 1925, she is buried in the Fairfax Cemetery, Milton.
