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!

Chilt over in a.m. and did the chores. Washed. We drove downtown in evening and Walter and us went to W. Owosso to the carnival. Earl came later. Went thro' the "electric fountain". Good! The boys drove home with us and stayed a few minutes.
