Finding Aid Title: Victor E. Geroge Diary, 1907-1931
Finding Aid Collection Number: 0914
Date Range of Collection: 1907-1931
Creator of Materials: George, Victor E. [Victor Ernest], 1893-1980
Content Description: The Victor George diary is a positive photocopy of a ruled notebook containing entries which document his activities from 1907 to 1931. Although presented in chronological order, it does not appear as if the entries were written on the recorded dates but rather transcribed at a later time from memory or another source. Most of the entries are quite terse, and few are beyond a single sentence that summarizes a day's activities such as teaching school, travel to different Montana towns, and ranch chores. Beyond the chronological entries, George recorded in his notebook cattle and livestock numbers and sales, family birthdays, and short essays regarding particular events or people in his extended family.
