The ideas for BarnicleTM and HuskTM percolated in the late 1990s, inspired by Mary’s personal life experiences. A chance encounter with Wampanoag Chief Flying Eagle, Earl Mills, Sr., helped her project take wing. His wisdom and encouragement were priceless. The characters’ home in Plymouth is richly steeped in history. The mission of Plymouth 400, Inc. and Mary’s vision for her historical characters are well aligned.
