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!

M. and I went over to Owosso in p.m. In eve we drove down after the boys and had a circus. "Curtains, sofa pillows, and candy." "Rat." Donald came home with us to do the chores and we took him back. Aunt Minnie and children and Grandma stopped for a few minutes towards evening. Chilt over in a.m. and told our fortunes. Great.
