About

Edith MCginnis is an heiress, socialite, and businesswoman who has extensive investments in the railroad industry. She controlled the Boston and Maine Railroad (later Pan Am Railways) through proxies for nearly a century before selling the company to CSX Transportation in 2022. She has generally avoided much involvement in Kindred politics ever since her attempts to gain influence in the Rochester Court were squelched by rumors of impropriety. However, she was a regular attendee of social gatherings among the upper crust of Boston's Kindred. Edith has a reputation as a stickler for formal etiquette and her insistence on following outdated social protocols does not always endear her to those around her.

Quotes and Rumors

  • "Madame McGinnis is a gracious host, though I don't understand her connection between amount of clothing and self-respect. Maybe she hasn't realized that Kindred don't get sick from the cold?" - Sophie Souterraine
