Watch now on YouTube! More than a hundred years ago, Millie Latimer lived with her brother, his wife and their three sons on a 100 acre farm north of the village of Metcalfe, ON. What was life like for a single woman in those times? Millie’s life was a full one, but she still made time to keep a diary! Now, through the generosity of Millie’s family, this diary and its contents can be shared with the community - learn how this diary came to be shared and transcribed and how its contents can help us understand the history and geography of our area.
