Got some darning done and that’s about all. Bess, Albert, Dale, and myself took supper at the church and went to J.C.E.

My grandmother, Ruth Campbell Smith (1892 - 1972) kept a diary for many years. I am posting her entries from 1925 - 1927 in this blog. Her family included sons Dale (1916 - 2004), Dick (1918 - 1971), Albert (1920 - 1979), and Ned (1923 - 1976), and later daughters Marjorie (1925 - 2010) and Eleanor (1929 - 2011). Her husband was Gilbert (1889 - 1937) and they lived in Indianapolis. I hope you enjoy this glimpse of what it was like to be a housewife and mother in the 1920's.
Carol,
ReplyDeleteI got to this blog through my interest in Gardening. I love the old photos here and reading about the daily life of your grandmother. My grandmother was also a Campbell, but she grew up in Maryand.
