Maggie Hunter, 39, and her husband George were among the group who transferred from the Cameronia. They were both lost in the Lusitania sinking.
Maggie Hunter was born Maggie MacGregor on 12 April 1876 in Fyvie parish, Aberdeenshire, Scotland. She was engaged to George Hunter, a cabinet maker from Aberdeen, who emigrated to the United States in January 1906. She followed in September of that year. They were listed as residing in Atlanta, Georgia, before returning to Scotland on Lusitania. The couple was returning to Aberdeenshire because Maggie had a terminal illness, and she wanted to die at home.
