Review:
These papers consist chiefly of letters from Mary Dorman (1870-193-?) of Norwich, Chenango County, New York, to her mother, Diana Coy (1845-1911), East Pharsalia, Chenango County, New York, focusing on life as a housewife and mother of two daughters, Ruth and Florence. The letters summarize her daily chores, such as sewing clothes for the girls and herself, washing clothes, and visiting with friends. Also included are letters to Diana from her two sons, Charles and Luther, and a friend, Abbie, who lived in Whitney Point. The letters are chatty and informal and include mentions of other family members as well as friends in the communities.
