‎HANDWRITTEN MANUSCRIPT HISTORICAL RETELLING OF THE "INVASION BARBARES" - THE INVASION OF THE BARBARIANS IN A BEAUTIFUL CALLIGRAPHIC HAND‎

‎France 1900. On offer is a beautifully written historical recitation in French titled "Invasions Barbares" or in English the 'Invasion of the Barbarians.' While undated we believe this is an early 20th century manuscript wherein over 96 pages in lovely calligraphic hand we are told of the barbarian invasion of Europe complete with hand-drawn maps. One online source provides perspective: "The Migration Period also called Barbarian Invasions or V�lkerwanderung German for "wandering of the peoples" was a period of human migration which occurred within the period of roughly 300-700 CE in Europe1 marking the transition from Late Antiquity to the Early Middle Ages. The migration included the Goths Vandals Bulgars Alans Suebi Frisians and Franks among other Germanic Iranian and Slavic tribes. The migration may have been triggered by the incursions of the Huns in turn connected to the Turkic migration in Central Asia population pressures or climate changes. Migrations would continue well beyond 1000 CE with successive waves of Slavs Avars Hungarians then the Turkic expansion Mongol invasions and finally the Ottoman conquests radically changing the ethnic makeup of Eastern Europe. Western European historians tend to emphasize the earlier migrations most relevant to Western Europe." Some old damp-stains on the first few pages in purple ink on lined paper in an old journal. There is a torn out triangular chunk to the upper right corner of the fep taking part of the authors last name with it. Otherwise G. Good. 8vo - over 7�" - 9�" tall. French. unknown‎

‎EMILY C. DINGMAN‎

‎1878 - 1881 ORIGINAL MANUSCRIPT DIARY HANDWRITTEN BY AN ISOLATED PIONEER WOMAN LIVING THE HARD LIFE AS THE WIFE AND MOTHER OF MEN WHO WORK AND SAIL THE WATERS OF LAKE ONTARIO‎

‎THREE MILE BAY POINT PENINSULA NEW YORK. Fair. 1878. On offer is an intriguing manuscript diary handwritten by Emily C. Dingman who was the wife of Abraham B. Dingman of 3 Mile Bay and Point Peninsula in upstate New York on the eastern shore of Lake Ontario. Using an 1876 diary but overwriting somewhat illiterately in a very small yet legible hand Emily makes some entries in the 1870s but for the most part she writes for the full years of 1880 and 1881and it is packed full. Historians and collectors of this very isolated area will be hard pressed to find a more detailed picture of life as she tells of ships on the bay or the men traveling to the local village or to Three Mile Bay on their boat or across the ice with a horse or taking the boat to Sackets Harbor Stony Island and Cape Vincent or just to the neighbors and sometimes because of the weather she was home alone as they couldn't get back to her which made her rather lonely. Also in the winter of 1881 there is a measles epidemic on the Point and her family gets very sick. One of my favorite entries is on October 30th 1881 when her two children took an organ out on a boat in the bay and sung to the crowd on the shore. The crowd was holding lanterns. A wonderful relic of manuscript Americana! A look at the map and one realizes just how isolated this family must have been especially during the 1880s when the diary was written. Here are some snippets: 1878 Entries run from April 1st to June 18th - here are just two "April 1st Pleasant till night then looked like a storm. Think it will rain before morning. Abram and Mr. Rector went to 3 Mile Bay and Chaumont to see about selling grass seed. Porter and Hanley fixed fence. I washed. Loney done chores. Large fire in the direction of Stoney Point. Gene Collins here today to hire Hanley for one month for 15 dollars don't think he will go." "April 7th Warm but rained the most of the day but not hard. Uncle Samuel was here. We didn't go to meeting. Just as it was getting light this morning Uncle Samuel thought someone rapped at the door and called out Pa. He got up as soon as possible dressed himself and went to the door but could see no one. He called Newel two or three times but got no answer. Abram got up and they both went to the lake where they thought Newel might be with his boat. Last Wednesday Newel with three others went to Canada. It is quite a mystery." 1880 two years of steady entries "January 1st Mrs. Barton buried today. Rev. LaClair preached. Abram Porter Jennie and I went to the funeral. Hanley went to Cape Vincent. In the evening Abram Loney and I went to Mrs. Hewitt's." "January 19th Abram Porter and Hanley cleaned grass seed. Snowed hard a little while then cleared off and was pleasant as summer. Jennie and Alta talked of taking a boat ride on the lake but didn't go. Hanley's boat was at the end of the Point. Dyer Harris came here and backed out in the horse trade. Left Dick and took his horse home. Porter went to the village in the evening had a cup of coffee and fried cake." "March 24th Eight years ago today Minerva was buried. A very big snow storm and today no snow but muddy. Jennie and Dyer's wife here. Found me sick. Doctored me up. Am feeling a little better tonight but a bad headache yet. Abram went to the village and got some nails. Frank went home tonight. Porter went to the village. Hanley to Mr. Angell's. It rained a little today. Tonight is dark as crypt. All the cows broke through the stable floor. Got out about 10 o'clock." "April 14th Wind North quite cold. Abram visited with John all day. Porter surveyed the road. Jennie and Ellie took John's horses and went to the village. Got home at noon. In the afternoon John and Porter went to the swamp. Afternoon Mrs. McKee here a little while. After supper Porter and Hanley went to the village. Six vessels and two sail boats today for the first time this spring." "June 1st Wind south till night then west. Victor went away from here in the morning. Porter and Jennie got home from Randall's at noon. Mr. Rector was here. Said he had bought Victor's house. Mr. Roof here. Got half pound of ginger of him. The Commissioner visited the school tonight. Milton Lance here for Hanley to go to the cheese factory to a party. Porter and Jennie went in the afternoon. Abram and Loney went to the village with barley to send to mill with the steam boat. Got Loney a pair of shoes. Porter got sugar and tea to 3 Mile Bay." "June 14th Abram and Porter went to Three Mile Bay got 20 lbs sugar and 5 lbs coffee. Heard that H. Duel had hung himself. Em and Jen played in their posy beds all day and sewed the rest of the time. Hanley painted boat in the forenoon and hoed potatoes in the afternoon. At night Abram Porter and Loren went to the village. Well said." "June 24th Abram hoed potatoes. Porter and Wallace Washburn went to 3 Mile Bay. Hanley took a boat and to Carlton Island. The wind was blowing very hard. I stood and watched him and the boat would go out of sight and I thought he would go to the bottom. Oh dear anything but a boat. Jennie cleaned the parlor. I done housework and picked strawberries and canned a two quart can full. Tonight it looked very much like rain. The boys will not be home tonight." "July 19th Abram took Porter and Jennie to the village to take the boat to go to the island and go berrying. Hanley took our team and took a load of lambs to the four corners for Mr. Lance. Abram took Mr. Mayhew's stack cover home after dinner. He and I went a berrying. I baked and washed. A big thunder shower this afternoon. Tonight the wind is blowing very hard. The preacher and Nellie here today. We was gone away." "August 4th & 6th Abram went to the blacksmith shop. Porter went fishing. Hanley made a hang man. Jennie went to Mr. Getman's from there to Mr. Hewitt's with Mary Alice and Frank. Loney went to the village. I got Jennie a silver thimble piece 50 cents. Let the peddler have a thimble towards it. He allowed me 10 cts. for it. Porter went to the village for the mail. Got a letter from Doren. It is almost 12 o'clock. Hanley has not come yet. Has undoubtedly lost the track for it is quite dark to hunt. Carrie Lance here to do some stitching��Folks finished drawing barley. Have 54 loads. Cut some oats. Peddler here. Sold eggs. The teacher is done boarding here. A picnic at the Four Corners. None of us went. A big circus and balloon ascension to Watertown." "September 22nd Wind west all day and quite cold. Porter and Jennie went to Watertown to the fair. Abram took them to the village early in the morning. Erin Stephens took them with some others to Chaumont in his boat. Hanley is threshing to Fred Vincent's. Frank Hewitt here. Mr. Roof here sold him eight doz eggs. A tin and grocery peddler here. Did not trade. After supper Abram and Loney went to the village and got the mail. We got a letter from Stephen Baker." "October 9th A lovely day. Abram and Hanley drew pressed hay to the village. Nellie here and got the saw. Porter worked in the swamp. After dinner Abram Jennie and I went to quarterly meeting to the Four Corners. Rev. Berry from Pillar Point preached from Gen. first chapter and 22 verse. When meeting was out Jennie went to the village with Mrs. Wilcox to carry her shoes. I went to the preacher's a few minutes. When we got home Hanley took the horse buggy and box and went to 3 Mile Bay. Said he was going out to Randal's. This is a beautiful evening." "November 9th Abram plowed. Porter fixed the wood shed. Hanley started twice to go to Kingston got as far as the Toad Hole and came back the wind as not in the right direction. Went to Byron Harrison and got a horse to work then took a grist and he and Loney went tot the village with it. Porter found a table and a few boards on the shore. This is a very pleasant evening. I have got to sit up tonight and bake two ovens full of bread after the rest have gone to bed. I feel just like sitting up but would like to have my children with me telling funny stories to pass the time away." "November 21st Awful cold and stormy. No meeting could hardly keep from freezing. All glad to stay close to this stove tonight but Hanley he'd rather sit by Mr. Getman's coal stove. I must go to bed or freeze." "December 13th & 15th Windsor Angell here in the morning.

They went across the ice to 3 Mile Point to let the 3 Mile Pointers know how green they was. The horse had to swim to get to the ice. The boys are from 22 to 26 years old who would think it�." "April 11th Daniel Barnes told Porter today that he found a nest of young birds a week ago. The nest was on the ground. There came a snowstorm and covered them up but the bird made a hole in the snow for a door to go out and in. Can we believe this bird story. It would be true if if if." "May 30th Abram dragged the bean ground in the forenoon. After dinner we went to 3 Mile Bay to Uncle Peter Schuylar's funeral. Coming home we called to see Libbie Comes. She was dead. Died this morning. I got Jennie a cashmere dress. Got me a fan and a pair of gloves�" "July 24th Very pleasant. Abram Loney and I went to meeting. At night Porter and Jennie went to the village. Mary Phillips here a little while. Hanley went to the corners to meeting. Heard tonight that the President could not live. Hope it is not so." "October 2nd Abram Jennie and I went to the village to hear President Garfield's funeral sermon preached by our preacher Rev. Cottrell. The text was taken from Samuel 19 Chapter first verse.

It was such a lovely evening that they took the organ out on the water in a boat and played and sung. The Pillar Pointers came with lanterns to the shore to listen to the music. It must have been grand. It was so still they had lamps lit and was a splendid sight and it will be a good advertisement for the coming concert." "November 23rd Porter went to 3 Mile Bay with the mail in a boat. Loney went to the village at night after him. Waited till dark. Didn't come and came home without him. Then Abram went after him it was so awful rough they could not get there till after dark. We was frightened almost to death about him."

‎Emily Caroline Smith‎

‎1913-1914 Diary of a Single Morris County NJ Woman with Close Familial Ties to the Col Hiram Smith Mayflower Settlers and an Heir to the Smith/baldwin House Writing As WWI Commenced‎

‎Morris County New Jersey: Morris County New Jersey Mayflower Baldwin House. Good with no dust jacket. 1913-1914. Hardcover. On offer is a very well-written diary of a New Jersey woman written at the beginning of WWI This diary measures 6 inches by 3 inches and contains 365 pages. It is approximately 85% complete. The covers are in good condition with some light wear marks. The spine and binding are also in good condition as are the pages. The handwriting is legible. The author of this diary is Emily Caroline Smith. She lived in Boonton NJ. She was born in April 1876 and lived her entire life in Morris County NJ. She passed away in 1956 at the age of 80. Smith is 37 when she writes this diary. The diary covers 1913 as well as a number of entries for 1914. On her mother's side Smith was a direct descendent of one of the Mayflower settlers. Her paternal great grandfather was Col Hiram Smith. Smith was a veteran of the American Revolutionary War and afterwards played a prominent role in his community. He was variously Justice of the Peace County Judge Sheriff of Morris Co member of the NJ Legislature Major and then Lt. Col in the New Jersey Militia. His son Hiram Smith Jr. Was a wealthy farmer and property investor. In 1833 he purchased a home that had been built in 1811. That house known today as the Smith / Baldwin House remained in the family until 2013 when the local government purchased it as a historical property. When he died he left his estate to his son Richard Emily's father. In time Emily and her sister Marjory inherited the property. Emily sold her share to her sister in 1909. Some moments from Emily's diary are captured here: "Horrors. Another birthday! Did a lot of shopping in A. M. took O'Dally to the 4: 00 boat. ." Apr 5 1913; "Afternoon to Settlement House to help Deaconess. Called on Mrs. Anderson and Mrs. Barclay in the hospital. Evening played bridge with Capt. Colday Miss and Luther." Aug 5 1913; "Authors Reading for Hosp. Geo Ade and Sewell Ford read from their stories." Feb 18 1914; "Rainy day - Marjorie came up in A. M. . Sue and I went down home for supper. Back to in violent rain." Nov 15 1914; "Marjorie came up for all day. We started the childrens comfortables. A stormy day." Dec 9 1914. For a local historian this is an excellent direct connect to a family with a long history and deep roots in their community. For a researcher in Women's Studies this diary offers a very good look at the world of a single relatively well-off woman at the turn of the last century and the attitudes and expectations prevalent at that time.; Manuscripts; 32mo 4" - 5" tall; 365 pages; KEYWORDS: HANDWRITTEN MANUSCRIPT DOCUMENT LETTER AUTOGRAPH WRITER HAND WRITTEN DOCUMENTS SIGNED LETTERS MANUSCRIPTS HISTORICAL HOLOGRAPH WRITERS AUTOGRAPHS PERSONAL MEMOIR MEMORIAL ANTIQUIT� CONTRAT V�LIN DOCUMENT MANUSCRIT PAPIER ANTIKE BRIEF PERGAMENT DOKUMENT MANUSKRIPT PAPIER OGGETTO D'ANTIQUARIATO ATTO VELINA DOCUMENTO MANOSCRITTO CARTA ANTIG�EDAD HECHO VITELA DOCUMENTO MANUSCRITO PAPEL Emily C.

‎EMMA JANE SMITH‎

‎1919 - 1921 FASCINATING POST WORLD WAR I MANUSCRIPT DIARY HANDWRITTEN BY A PIOUS WOMAN IN SERVICE TO A CORNWALL ENGLAND FAMILY‎

‎CORNWALL ENGLAND UNITED KINGDOM UK. Good. 1919. On offer is a diary that provides a fascinating look into the life of a 41 year old woman who works in service to an English family immediately following WWI The notebook is in very good condition and the entries are quite legible. It measures 8 in by 6 1/2 in and contains 141 pages. It is 100% complete. It covers the time period Jan 1st 1919 until Oct 24th 1921. Two to three entries are made each week. Church life plays a very important role and virtually every entry contains quotes from scripture or references to going to church services quite regularly. There is little reference to her daily tasks other than passing remarks about going shopping or having a difficult day with a child. Most geographical references are to locations in Cornwall UK. 'Wingfield' is frequently referenced as home and it was located on the edge of Plymouth. This is confirmed by numerous references to 'the Hoe' a large open space in Plymouth. She has a very active social life with a small group of friends and daily rounds of meeting for tea going bathing swimming together and long walks comprise much of her entries. There is little reference to events in the outside world. ". Went down and walked along the sands sat on high rock after and did some knitting. Peace Treaty was signed at Versailles this afternoon" June 28 1919."Went over to Penhenver in the morning to see submarine k14 pass" Sept 1st 1919. Most entries are similar to these: "Went to the Meeting church service in the morning & called to see Ethel D who is so ill. Went over to see A and H and had tea there. 12 altogether at tea and Mr. Gully was there - the blind brother. I enjoyed it very much. Went to the gospel and Mr. G preached Acts 7:55 ." Sept 28 1919. "Paid a visit at last to Mrs Bowen felt impressed to go since getting up. I had a very happy time with her one felt the warmth of Christian love coming out. After tea I called to see Ethel D. She is still very ill" Oct 8t 1919. "Mr. G went to Newquay today also Mr. T to see about electric lights for "Rockland" Mar 9 1920. "It is a lovely day today. We took our tea to Porth and had it on the rocks the waves dashing up. 11 years today on a Friday John passed away I thought about him" Apr 16 1920. And so the entries go - much focused on her immediate life and those in her small circle of friends. This diary gives a wonderful look inside what may appear to be an ordinary unremarkable life. But closer scrutiny can yield many nuggets of information for a social historian or someone involved in gender studies. It offers a great deal of local information about places in Cornwall UK.; Manuscript; 8vo - over 7�" - 9�" tall; KEYWORDS: HISTORY OF CORNWALL UK ENGLAND BRITAIN SOUTH WEST ENGLAND EMMA JANE SMITH PLYMOUTH UK THE HOE NEWQUAY WINGFIELD HALT PENHENVER GENDER STUDIES POST WW1 PERIOD IN BRITAIN 1920S 1910S EARLY 20TH CENTURY ROARING TWENTIES IN BRITAIN LIFESTYLE IN 1920'S BRITAIN WOMEN IN INTERWAR ENGLAND SMALL-TOWN LIFE IN INTERWAR ENGLAND CORNISH GENEALOGY CORNWALL LOCAL HISTORY LIFE IN CORNWALL BETWEEN THE WARS HANDWRITTEN MANUSCRIPT DOCUMENT LETTER AUTOGRAPH WRITER HAND WRITTEN DOCUMENTS SIGNED LETTERS MANUSCRIPTS DIARY DIARIES JOURNALS PERSONAL HISTORY SOCIAL HISTORY HISTORICAL HOLOGRAPH WRITERS AUTOGRAPHS PERSONAL MEMOIR MEMORIAL ANTIQUIT� CONTRAT V�LIN DOCUMENT MANUSCRIT PAPIER ANTIKE BRIEF PERGAMENT DOKUMENT MANUSKRIPT PAPIER OGGETTO D'ANTIQUARIATO ATTO VELINA DOCUMENTO MANOSCRITTO CARTA ANTIG�EDAD HECHO VITELA DOCUMENTO MANUSCRITO PAPEL . unknown‎

‎SARASOTA MANATEE FLORIDA FL ASEA TO EUROPE. Very Good. 1927. Manuscript. On offer is a very good pre Depression era European travel diary handwritten by Emma June Hibb of Manatee Florida not too far from Sarasota. Mrs. Hibb is a keen observer and dedicated diarist traveling with a large group of Floridians from September 6 1927 through October 11th when they return to New York. A quirky writer going from catty commentary - her girlfriend is miffed that they are traveling with so many of the people she can't stand from back in Florida to her observation that some men aboard ship sure do change their attitude when they discover a woman is married and her husband is also aboard ship. Emma also captures some choice moments on tour especially moving a passage wherein a French woman recognizes them for Americans and rushes over to embrace them all the while holding their hands and weeping in a thank you obviously the under current being the strong emotions still attached to the 'Great War' but 9 years in the past. She has the great habit of giving people nicknames based on place or memorable trait - Budwieser Iowa Carolina and West Palm to mention a few. The book has 2 pages filled with autographs from shipmates and Emma overwrites the book proper using the alphabet address area for other daily entries. This is a lovely travel diary of a woman with personality and keen eye.

‎1863 ORIGINAL MANUSCRIPT NEW JERSEY CIVIL WAR HOMEFRONT DIARY OF A 29 YR OLD WOMAN HOPING TO BE A BETTER CHRISTIAN IN THE NEW YEAR‎

‎NEWARK MENDHAM NEW JERSEY NJ. Good. 1863. On offer is a nice original manuscript relic of the Civil War year of 1863 handwritten by Emma L. Kitchell nee Reynolds of Mendham and Newark New Jersey. Emma seems to be a down to earth hardworking woman who on New Year's Day hopes the coming year finds her a better Christian. In fact the thread of religion winds its way throughout the narrative. On her 29th birthday January 27th she writes that 'about a year since I gave myself to God. Oh how unfaithful I have been. I have been devoted to God. May this year see me more.' There are some reports of the war but the year seems to be one of sickness: children with the measles bad colds sore throats fevers . Never-ending work constant sickness the war and Emma continues to 'chore'. The in February Emma writes: 'Decided to go to H & L Entertainments. Quite a treat for me to go out an evening.' Collectors historians and researchers of this era and the New Jersey area will find a treasure trove of names and local events observed and noted by Emma.

‎EMMA LOUISA CHITTY‎

‎1871 - 1883 ORIGINAL MANUSCRIPT JOURNAL OF SOUTHERN POETRY AND LITERARY MUSINGS SOME PRO CONFEDERATE BY A NOTED SOUTH CAROLINA TEACHER AND DOLL MAKING PIONEER‎

‎WINSTON-SALEM NORTH CAROLINA OLD SALEM NC. Good. 1871. On offer is a super charming relic of southern literary musings and reflections dated 1871 through 1883 handwritten by noted and beloved teacher who taught Latin mathematics and needlework at the Salem Female Academy in Old Salem North Carolina Emma Louisa Chitty 1848-1919. The 23 year old Moravian woman from the enclave in Old Salem she is best remembered as a pioneering doll maker and creator of the rare cloth doll known as "Miss Chitty". Additionally Emma Chitty was instrumental in the design of the original "Maggie Bessie doll" an iconic doll named after Old Salem Moravian sisters Margaret Gertrude Pfohl Maggie and Caroline Elizabeth Pfohl Bessie. The approximately 60 page 8.5 x 6.5 book features about 27 poems and other literary musings written by Emma including Colonel Henry T. Thompson's famous poem "Lee to the Rear". Known as the poet laureate of the Confederacy Thompson's verse memorializes the Civil War Confederate hero Robert E. Lee. Ms. Chitty's inclusion of Thompson's poem reflects the Pro-Confederate sentiment still very much in evidence then throughout the South. Miss Chitty's writings here were also penned during the time of her now legendary doll making endeavors. HISTORICAL NOTES: 1. Originally founded in 1772 as the "Little Girls School" the institution changed its name in 1866 to the Salem Female Academy. The school began awarding college diplomas in 1890 and in 1907 the name was officially changed to Salem Academy and College. To this day both Salem Academy and Salem College share the campus in adjacent Old Salem. Notably Salem College is the oldest female educational establishment that is still a women's college and the oldest female institution in the Southern U.S. 2. "Emma Chitty made cloth dolls and soon taught her methods to her friends Maggie and Bessie Pfohl who added their own touches. Maggie began the dolls in the 1890s starting with an old German pattern of her mother's. She painted the heads with house paint sanded them then applied the features and hair with oil paints and varnished them. The dolls had molded features and carefully stitched fingers and toes 'and a backbone' she recalled. 'You have to have a backbone. If you don't they nod.' The sisters made dolls for 40 years selling them and giving them away" see Made to Play House: Dolls and the Commercialization of American Girlhood by Miriam Formanek-Brunell 1998 p. 75.

Slack of New Orleans dated March 16 1856 with entries by her friends schoolmates and loved ones.

Jackson Myrtilla Florance Madame Candais Augustine W. F. G. Schirmer Carmen Atocha Rowena Melovna Lockhart Winter Clara Wolfe Helen Schieffelin Josephine Miller and many more. This seems to be a book of parting perhaps a school graduation and of great interest are some New York based album entries. Here are some snippets: May Angels weave for thee a crown of immortality. Soon dear companion of my play We part to go a different way. The session and its joys are o're We part perhaps to meet no more. But let our early hope ariseTo that bright session in the skies. There may I meet- dear frined with you And never never bid Adieu. I will not say how dear thou art How oft my thoughts recur to theeI only ask when we shall depart That thou will sometimes think of me. A white rose I have placed for thee In the deep urn of memory. I do not wish that thou mayest be the gayest of the gay Nor glitter like a butterfly a being of the day But O! I wish that thou mayest be a being pure and bright As the angels that surround God's throne of eternal light; And O! I wish when life is past and thou from earth are gone That thou mayest rest in Heaven above the Christian's happy home. The book has about 100 pages not all but most of them are written on. The entries are dated from 1856 to 1858. There is a somewhat spiritual tone to not only the entries but also the wreath of flowers in gilt on the front board and the winged angel also in gilt on the back. Both boards are separated have wear and the spine covering is mostly gone. It seems that all page edges were gilted. The binding has begun to separate but most pages in the textblock seem to be holding together. 6" x 7 3/4".
