According to this:

Researcher John Herrington was able to track down some of the details of Crosbie's life—born in Lancashire in 1876, real name Muriel Maud Dolley (or D'Oyley in some records), unclear if Crosbie was a married name or a pseudonym, though John found no record of a marriage, lived in Liverpool as a young woman, died 1958. Which still leaves quite a few gaps and makes me wonder what experiences in her life might have led her to the dramatic plot of There and Back Again.

I'm not sure who John Herrington is, though, or why they were researching Mary Crosbie. Qq1122qq (talk) 17:55, 22 June 2023 (UTC)Reply

There are several Mary Crosbie's on wikidata but none seem to match this info. Qq1122qq (talk) 17:57, 22 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
