75 Years Ago - Eileen's Diary - March 5, 1938


75 Years Ago - Eileen's Diary - March 5, 1938
 
 
This entry is the daily post on this blog from the diary of nineteen year old Eileen KINNICK, 75 Years Ago this date.

Starting March 1, a weekly comment on these daily entries appear on the Dr. Bill Tells Ancestor Stories blog. Those weekly entries, on that blog, on each Friday of the week, will continue, with links to some of these daily entries.

Here is the daily entry for Saturday, March 5:

Down at the plant awhile in morning. LVene, Pete & Albert came for me. Moved the stove out to the farm from next door. Quite slick out. Didn't do much in morning. Over to Smith's for dinner. Back to work again after dinner. Scraping off paper & Pete plastering. Over to Smith's to supper. Bro't LVene in to get her hair cut. Drove around till 10:00. Pete bro't me home & then LVene. Quite tired. Felt like I'm catching cold.


My comments: LVene was Pete's sister, 28, not yet married (that occurred May 1938 - 2 months off) - I do not know who Albert was, at this point. Did he sell them the stove perhaps? Or help hook it up?

Do you suppose the stove looked at all like this 1938 stove?



Families are Forever!  ;-)
