Eva B Lamphere
1936-40 Manuscript Diary of a Rutland Vermont Grandmother Who is the Wife of the Towns Creamery Owner
West Rutland Vermont. Very Good- with no dust jacket. 1940s. Hardcover. On offer is an excellent 5-year diary from New England focused on the daily life of a middle class middle aged woman and those in her circle. The diary belonged to Eva Jane Bassett Lamphere 1886-1975 to parents Jane Pullen and Wellington Bassett a farmer. She lived her life in the West Rutland Vermont area. In 1907 she was married to George Winfield Lamphere 1888-1967 who ran a wholesale and retail creamery in town while his brother Emmett ran a local convenience store. They had a son Richard Dick Wellington 1915-2003 who would grow up to work as a physicist at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory ORNL. At the time of this diary Dick was married to a woman named Eunice. Eva Lamphere was 56 when she began this diary. Although this was a momentous decade for the United States her diary is very focused on local events and happenings in her life and her sons vs those of the wider world. She does make a few insightful comments about the war raging around her such as this one: 1942: Rationing began Sugar first then tires and gas. 1943 will see everything rationed. Geo spends more money and manpower on rationing than would be needed to double present production. Silly administration in Washington. Hope the new congress coming on Jan 3 will be wiser. No Nazi in labor rationing and agriculture. I think Hitler would like civil war in American and bureaus are trying to provoke one Special Events Section. Of interest is the way Eva discusses her relationship with her daughter-in-law Eunice. Eunice and Evas son Richard live in Pennsylvania have a child named David and later a baby named Grace and are regularly involved in Eva and Georges lives
for better or worse! Some excerpts: A 2 lb girl born to David and Eunice. Shes in hospital. Mrs. Avery says she did not know nurse left Eunice. Nurse should have her license taken away Feb 19 1942. David plays out of doors and continually gets dirty. Eunice a little irritable. Try to hold patience Nov 19 1942. Mrs. Avery came for Eunice and children this PM. Wish Eunice would stop complaining about Dick she also has shortcomings Oct 16 1943. Overall the diary is focused on the people and places that Eva George and their family visit regularly. There are lots of fascinating tidbits in Evas thorough daily entries that help paint a fulsome picture of the lives of the middle class in New Hampshire. Excerpts follow: Ironed in A. M. Changed position of couch in dining room. Went to Rutland for cord for radio. Went to G. Meads. Cat came back from vet Jan 23 1940. Went to store very early so Geo could take men to . To Rutland after dinner Made arrangements to get Dodge back May 8 1940. Geo did not sleep much last night. The effects of the carbon monoxide poisoning is affecting his kidneys Dec 10 1940. Stay home all day. Cold raw mend shirt and stockings. Fix moose meat for stew in P. M. And wash bureau scarffs Mar 5 1941. Stay home excepting for taking wash cloth bag up to Grace Meads. U. S. Declares war on Japan. Am sorry our country must go to war Dec 8 1941. Disturbing letter from Dick. He considers joining air corps. Will he never be content to live a normal life Both of us much upset Jan 9 1942. .Geo very depressed. Imperial Dairy Co. Refused to take his frozen cream as they agreed to do dirty trick on their part Feb 3 1942. Mrs. Eastmans oil stove set our corner house on fire. We all work to save things. Margaret slept here June 3 1942. Geo and Edith return from Mass 12: 30. Geo keeps store for Emmett in eve. Nellie Bell here this eve May 26 1944. For a social historian this diary is filled with the minutia of daily life in rural Vermont during the war. For a Womens Studies program it very clearly describes the daily life experienced by many women in the middle of the 20th century and the gender roles they lived out. This diary measures 5.0 inches by 4.25 inches and contains 365 pages. It is over 90 % complete. The padded cover is in good condition although there are wear marks on the corners and edges. The diary has a lock and the keys to the lock are in the box in which the diary was found. The binding is in good condition as are the pages. The handwriting is legible. Overall VG. ; Manuscripts; 5" x 4.25"; 365 pages; Signed by Author . hardcover

Our Worthy Matron who was born about 1900 and was married to Henry Taylor uses a five year diary as a page-a-day book and does a super job as a diarist with less than a dozen days without entries and even a casual reader cannot fail to note that Evelyn's life revolves around the OES and her family. Here are some snippets: 1929 "January 1st - 3rd My officers were appointed and our instillation is to be on my Birthday for which I am very proud. Anna to preside during instillation

EVELYN REED
1929 - 1931 1933 & 1961 ORIGINAL GROUP OF THREE 3 MANUSCRIPT DIARIES HANDWRITTEN BY THE WIFE OF ARDTREA ONTARIO COUNCILMAN AND FARMER IN ORILLIA TOWNSHIP AND ONE OF ORILLIA PACKET CORRESPONDENTS IN 1960S DETAILING HER EVERYDAY LIFE AND TIMES
Orillia Ontario. Fair. 1929. On offer are 1929-31 1933 and 1961 manuscript diaries documenting a life of Evelyn Carter Reed b. 1902 from Orillia Township. Evelyn was a wife of Wilbour T. Reed a farmer and swine breeder from Ardtrea who was a member of the Orillia Municipal Council in 1940-60s and served as a Simcoe County Warden in 1953. The first of the diaries starts in 1929 7 years after they got married. The family also kept summer cottages that seem to be very popular during the season: "Ag. 1 1933: Wib and I were kept busy feeding our 13 guests. The men folks went fishing eve. Art went to street dancing at night. This was Fireman's Tournament day. I did a bit more ironing this P.M. .Aug. 3rd:: We had 17 for dinner and supper." The diaries give an excellent insight into life of a woman from a well off farmer's family in mid-20th century and document how life changed from 1930s to 1960s including shopping and culinary habits home appliances and involvement into social life. In 1929 Evelyn was a young wife and mother of two boys Alex and Ross busy with housekeeping. Her main activities included cleaning home and summer cottages cooking for the family and lodgers washing sewing and mending clothes while her husband was mostly busy with cattle pigs and crops. She meticulously lists dishes that she cooks and clothes she makes: "Apr. 14 1930 Nice but cold. I clarified syrup all day made yeast chocolate cake Johnny cake cleaned a lot of eggs washed a few silk things and wrote to mother; June 2: Very warm. I did a big washing and hung it on my new clothes line also started cleaning cellar and did some mending. Took off storm windows. The men got field ready for potatoes; June 12th A nice day. I preserved pineapple and rhubarb made cookies and cake cleaned windows and put screen on kitchen window got letter from granny. Marcie phoned me. The men sowed turnips. Sept 2 "We took little pigs to market but sold none. I preserved peaches plums canned 9 jars tomatoes and made peach jelly. I also made pies and cake. Wib scrubbed kitchen and pantry. We thought we did a big day's work". The family had many visitors occasionally attended different events like Ladies Aid meetings lectures at church School Board meetings and shows and Evelyn maintains very active correspondence. In 1960s their lifestyle changed - they travel around more and seem to be more actively involved in social and political life in the county Wilbour attends hog producers meetings Simcoe warden elections and banquets and Church and School Boards meetings Evelyn is still busy with household chores but now she spends much time sewing and quilting and she often mentions writing news for "Packet" an Orillia newspaper and participating in the Women Institute activities: "Feb. 13th: Nice day. I wrote news for both papers A.M. and pressed some strips of my heavy material for quilt and sewed it all together.Feb 15th. .Wib went for Barrie to attend The Trustee and Ratepayers meeting. I went to quilting again with Carters.Feb. 20. I spent most of A.M. writing news for papers; Dec. 5: I made cookies A.M. iced my cake scrubbed pantry on my knees mopped kitchen and generally put things in order for W.I. Women Institute meeting. When 12 ladies came had meeting and program with game contests and fun till midnight when I served lunch."
