It is a fascinating look at life in the early 20th century in rural Pennsylvania. In addition to the daily entries which include births, deaths, and marriages, she listed these events at the end of each diary. The index is to all births, deaths and marriages, whether in the body or the summary. The family names include (the spellings are Margaret's spellings):
