Margaret Beale's sketching was limited to rudimentary drawings of her family that accompanied her diary entries detailing her traditional domestic life with her husband and five children.
The original author of this biography characterised Margaret Lindsay Beale as Anthony Beale's wife, rather than his daughter, noting with interest that she referred to Anthony as 'Pa' in her diaries. It may be that the relevant diaries were not all narrated by Margaret Beale, and that the mixed authorial voice caused some confusion. Ray J Brown provided sources via email, so have corrected. -
