I am head of the house old instead of my husband Thank goodness I am married, if not I would have had to be supported by my friends and relatives If my marriage doesn’t work out me and my husband couldn’t get a divorce. I would ask the court for a separation and they would always tell us to work out our differences or separate with out a legal agreement

Since I do stay home almost all of the day, I have to cook all of the meals I have to get up real early in the mornin’ to start cookin’ all the meals for the day

Some of the things we use in our house is hand made, like our candles and soup I have to make clothes for our children I have to spin and weave and knit. It actually starts to hurt after a while.

The roads in our little town were very small. A lot of our horses were too big for the roads The one type of road I like is the Mast Road, it’s the good road that ain’t rough but most of them lead to forest so its no good It was very hard to travel on the roads because of there conditions When we did travel we used Horses, Sleds, and Wagons. If it was a short distance, we walked

My children love to play games. Once in a while when we all have free time we like to get the whole family in to play fun games Most of these game would be designed to help you on your daily skills or problems

Each colony had different beliefs, my colony believes in Baptist and Anglicans Our service were very serious and everyone was excepted to come and there was no horse play

Our services could last almost all day long, if that did happen they would break for a large meal and talk a little then return back to the service My husband was not allowed to cut or shave any of his facial hair

There wasn’t really any close talking to neighbors. Mostly because your “neighbors” weren’t so close. If you wanted to talk to anyone you have to use some type of transportation to get to where you wanted just to talk to someone
