She also wrote weekly columns for this newspaper on gene¬alogy, antiques and history. She was the editor of the weekly Bellville, Ohio, Star for several years.
She was chosen by the family and friends of the late Dwight Wesley Garber of Richland County to review the material and unfinished manuscript in his project on Johnny Appleseed that he had collected and worked on from 1948 through the early 1970s. Peggy was asked to find a story in the material that would be uniquely hers. After her thorough review and many hours of additional research, Peggy has captured the essence of John Chapman, the man, and confirmed his rightful place as an historical figure - not a legend.ver menos
