The blog posts below are taken from my grandmother's diaries. Althea Green Smith Crook was lovingly referred to as Nanny to her immediate family ~ thus her diaries are called Nanny's Diaries.

Nanny wrote in her diaries when she remembered to - mostly in the evening. There will be some years in which she didn't keep diaries and there will also be some days/weeks in her yearly diaries in which she skipped or forgot to write in them. For the most part, these are her words - written as she wrote them. There will be typos, forgotten punctuation, and other grammatical errors - but I am rewriting these as my Nanny originally wrote them.

As with all old handwriting, there are some entries that I can't quite make out - and these entries will be followed with a (?) to signify that this may or may not be correct or I can't figure out what she is trying to write.

Thank you Nanny for leaving us 50 years worth of memories! We miss you!

June 22, 1991 Kim's Wedding


 

Saturday, June 22, 1991 Kimberly Allie Horton and Thomas Charles Harriman married at 1 PM

 

Today was a very very beautiful outside wedding at the good old farm. A great granddaughter of Ashbel and Allie McKeen Smith was married to a very nice young man, Thomas Charles Harriman, a son of Mr. and Mrs. Ann Harriman and the late Mr. (blank). There were many relatives and friends there. Tons of food, gifts and everything. It was one of the greatest days of my life. It was something I can’t begin to write about. It is in my mind. I’ll never forget it. I’m so thankful I was alive to see it all and be there in person. Brogan was the catch of everyone’s eyes.
