Grace Rose lived from 1887 to 1981. She was born in Michigan and lived there most of her life. This is a transcription of her diary written in 1908, the year she turned 21. She lived in Corunna, Michigan at the time. In just a few years, she would be married to Earl Derham. Read on for the adventures of a single girl in the early 20th century!

Cool and wind blew rather hard during the day. Blizzard at night. Got Will C's letter and answered it. Mama took me downtown in p.m. and I went to Owosso. Saw Elaine T. Club girls met at Belle's in evening although it was awful stormy. Mama came down. Arthur took the girls home with his horse and cutler. Mama and I drove home at 12 o'clock and the road was drifted quite bad.
