	Cross Creek, a Literary Retreat in
		When Marjorie Rawlings, reared in Washington, DC, came to the rural Florida village near Gainesville in 1928, during the Depression, she found not only the sense of place she yearned for, but a bounteous source of material for her writing.
		When she died in 1953, Marjorie Rawlings left her property to the University of Florida, but for the past twenty years the 70-acre farm and orange grove, as well as the house, have been managed by the Florida Park Service as a historic site.
		Marjorie Rawlings proudly sent crates of citrus to friends up north some years, but at other times, early frost and severe freezes spelt disaster.

	Marjorie Main - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Marjorie Main (24 February 1890 – 10 April 1975) was an American character actress who was best known for her role as Ma Kettle in a series of ten Ma and Pa Kettle movies.
		Her own lover was Spring Byington with whom she lived openly in Beverly Hills, and which might have surprised many people given Byington's near constant casting in sweetly maternal roles.
		Main was quoted by Hadleigh as saying: "...it's true that Spring never had any use for men."

		A word here, a look there, a gesture all hint at the ability she has, and in the final scene her calmness and unflappability betray her inner steel.
		Finally, Marjorie Main built an entire career playing strong women who were unafraid to assert themselves and who did things their way.
		Her character in The Belle of New York is a perfect example, contemptuous of fools, little patience for idiots, strong willed and determined, but with a soft spot for her nephew and willing to change her mind when proven wrong.
