Iowans Writing Histories and Autobiographies

Writing Family Histories and Autobiographies, continued

`People who wrote stories for the class lived in three different care facilities. Their ages ranged from 65 to 92. Twenty of the twenty-two people were women`

For this WebSite, we chose stories whose themes covered these areas:
Laundry Days without Electricity,
Rural Iowa Descriptions,
and Individual Memories of life in the early 1900s.
We hope not only will you read and enjoy these stories, but will use the form to submit your own family histories and autobiographies which will help future generations color their historical information with brighter, deeper colors.
