Identifying

[edit]

@Beleg Tâl:

We know:

  • White is not her maiden name, and she's married (Mrs. on the cover)
  • Probably scottish (lots of poems about scottish immigrants to the US and scotland in general)
  • Lived in Johnstown, Pennsylvania
  • Published a book in 1919

There are an surprising lot of people named Barbara White out there, but Barbara M. McMillan White (wikitree findagrave familysearch) seems the most probable to me, as she fits in all the boxes (married to a Mr. White, scottish Mac, lived in the later half of her life and died in Johnstown).
