Mary Smith journal, 1853-1916.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/503116634

Though marked as the record book of Charles Smith, this journal seems to have actually been kept by his daughter, Mary, while she was growing up in South Windham, Connecticut. The early journal entries relate the daily activities of her family, including her parents, Charles and Mary Abbe Smith, and brother, Guilford Smith. A July 1861 entry tells of the Battle of Bull Run. Later entries include newspaper clippings, recipes, and the ancestry of Geo. B. McClellan as copied from the Willimantic Journal. Mary Smith married P. Henry Woodward and resided in Hartford, Connecticut. The Smiths were all involved with Smith, Winchester & Company. Mary Smith Woodward was admitted to the partnership in 1884 and retired as a director in 1904.
