Abstract
The idea for this paper came from the Kanaski family who now occupies the
Sketcher house in Huron County. When they moved in, Anna Sketcher's son left
much of the family belongings, among them were several of Anna's personal diaries.
While cleaning out the attic one day, Mrs. Kanaski came across those diaries and later
mentioned them to me. Of course I love old things and especially when they involve
deciphering someone's handwriting so naturally I was excited to learn more.
However, I did not initially think about them as a potential Senior Individualized
Project. But when I continued to think about my topic, the diaries kept coming up
and eventually I decided that farming would be an incredibly interesting topic
especially since I would have access to such a great primary source. After doing all
the research and writing, I still enjoy the topic and actually want to keep learning
more so I would think that it has been a success.
