Description

Because of the accuracy of Edith's writing, this set of several diaries has been combined into one book. Her father, August Ziegenhorn, owned one of the most popular hardware stores in town. He eventually expanded his business to sell groceries, clothing, and other essentials. He was a veterinarian, druggist, merchant, and postmaster.Edith describes her daily chores, church activities, births, deaths, and the general living conditions in the mid 1910s in central Illinois. She writes about traveling in both cars and buggies. This is a transitional period in America and she is young and not afraid to travel and experience life.Some of her entries are funny, some sad, but all reflect the life going on around her. As editor, and her grand nephew, I took special care in transcribing her words exactly as written. By doing so, I hope I have conveyed the character of Edith and a reflection of the fact that she was only fifteen when she started these diaries. I did leave in her misspelled words believing they represented the spellings of her day. She did attend school until the age of sixteen.
