Notes
General Note
"The major event portrayed in this book are based on actual facts. The details around them are fictionalized. Jeremiah Buckley was my [Elizabeth Osta's] great-grandfather, his daughter Maggie my grandmother. Births, deaths and emigrations are all based on historical documents, as are the political events that are portrayed."--P. v.
