He father was a tall, powerful man with a deep inner strength that she undoubtedly inherited from him. Because her father was a bootlegger, family income was unstable. As a result, Margaret never had a doll. Margaret's mother was Miss Abigail Bundham, who the Bragg's called Miss Ab. She was a creative but a little bit odd. The poverty of her childhood shaped Margaret. She spent most of her life doing back-breaking work for very low pay.
