Diary of Anna Green Winslow, A Boston School Girl of 1771
"Anna Green Winslow's father was commissary-general of the British forces in Nova Scotia. In 1770 she was sent to a finishing school in Boston, where she lived with her aunt and uncle, Sarah and John Deming. During her separation from her family, she kept a diary sporadically from November 1771 to May 1773. Her aunt apparently encouraged the effort as a penmanship exercise, but its chief function was to provide a running letter to her parents." (Encyclopedia.com)
