Since learning my 2x great grandmother was a midwife — and that midwives often kept detailed diaries — I’ve been pestering every relative I come across about any written family artifacts they might have. It has definitely become both my obsession and my holy grail.
I’ve read a number of midwife diaries, and just know my ancestor’s would be filled with delicious details and personality. 😉
