The younger Margaret was the daughter of the original beach settlers, William and Margaret McClelland. That makes her the sister of Joe McClelland, the youngest sibling, who later owned what would become the McClelland’s Beach properties. Margaret’s hand-written memories are presented here, unedited.
The property of the original William and Margaret McClelland included land in what is now Minnesota, just across the road from McClelland's Beach.
