Hell-Cat Maggie

Hell-Cat Maggie - Wikipedia
Hell-Cat Maggie
Born c. 1820
Died 1845 (aged c. 25)
Nationality Irish American
Other names Hellcat Maggie
Occupation Street gang member
Known for Five Points personality and early member of the Dead Rabbits.
Hell-Cat Maggie (fl. 1840–1845) was the pseudonym of an American criminal and early member of the Dead Rabbits. She was a well-known personality in Manhattan's Five Points district and a noted fighter, her teeth reportedly filed into points and who wore long claw-like brass fingernails,[1] who fought alongside the Dead Rabbits and other Five Pointers against rival nativist gangs from the Bowery, most especially the Bowery Boys, during the early 1840s. Although there is little information on her life, she is one of the earliest female criminals of the "Gangs of New York" era and has been compared to later women criminals such as Gallus Mag and Battle Annie, the latter leading the female auxiliary of the Gopher Gang during the 1870s.[2][3]

A composite character based on Hell-Cat Maggie, Sadie the Goat (whose historic existence has been in doubt) and Gallus Mag was played by Cara Seymour in the 2002 film adaptation of Herbert Asbury's Gangs of New York directed by Martin Scorsese. She was also featured in the 2003 historical novel A Passionate Girl by Thomas J. Fleming.

 

It is horrible out there - thought I`d look for a laugh, and found this.......

@Gail_68 Missed ya too me luvverly but very pleased your well enough to join in the forum again- XTRA SPECIAL HUGgZzz being sent for YOU

 

@BeeHappy Oh bless you Bee

I have missed the banter it lifts me out the blues but this weather is enough to drag we all down

 

@Gail_68 I just looked up MCTD as I didn't know what it is. I was saddened to read the symptoms and hope that you have more good days than bad.

It has been a long winter and of course, still lots more to go. We are going to be treated to a couple of days where the high temperature will surpass freezing. This will help reduce the build up of snow and freezing rain. The snow along the side of our street is stacked up over the 6 foot mark. We're running out of places to shovel it.

I hope everyone has a good day and plays safe

 

@wiseowl for the kind words...it was mainly to let members know that if I go missing from time to time, it's because somethings occurred again.

 

@CanadianLori,

Thanks so much, what you read I have and more...each day is a nightmare never knowing what you wake up with but life goes on and I love my home and gardens and since joining GC..yourself and members bring me joy and also laughter at times which is an excellent booster

I hope the weather your end soon clears, after I came on this morning it started snowing here, now it's heavy rain and winds.

Enjoy your day also Gail
