Two diaries cover Anne Rose's life from ten and a half until nineteen although there are no entries from April 1861 through Fall 1864. Most of the entries concern boys whom Anne has (or desires) as sweethearts and the socialization of a young girl into a wife. There is almost nothing about war, Macon city life, or Wesleyan Female College, which Rose attended. However, the entries are revealing for their time. An annotated typescript made from the diaries by Rose's daughter, Mary Hermione Ross (Mrs. Benjamin Pressley) Walker, in 1940, is included.
