Margaret ('Daisy') Leiter was the daughter of Levi Z. Leiter of Chicago whom made his money in the dry goods business and real estate.
Her sister Mary Leiter was the first wife of George Nathaniel Curzon. While Curzon and Mary were Viceroy and Vicereine of India, Daisy paid a visit to her sister. There in India she met and fell in love with one of Curzon's aides de camp. The pair were married, and they were later Earl and Countess of Suffolk and Berkshire.
