THIS IS THE DIARY JUNCTION - DATA AND LINKS FOR OVER 500 HISTORICAL AND LITERARY DIARISTS PLEASE TAKE A MOMENT ALSO TO LOOK AT KIP FENN, A MAJOR NOVEL ABOUT THE 21st CENTURY - freely available on this site Hargrave, Letitia ___ n/a-1854 ___ Canadian ___ n/a BIOGRAPHICAL SUMMARY There is only scarce information about Letitia on the internet, and this comes mostly from her diary. She married James Hargrave in 1840. The same year they moved, with the Hudson's Bay Company, to York Factory in Manitoba. During the 1840s, while living in York Factory, they had several children, although a second son died soon after being born. In 1851-1852, the family moved to Sault Ste, but, in 1854, Letitia died of cholera. It's not exactly clear from information available on the internet, but Letitia did write a diary, apparently while crossing the Atlantic on a visit to Scotland, and this is included in the book of letters.

IMPORTANT NOTES AND CAUTIONS: 1) The first line of basic information may be incomplete in several ways: some historical figures have different names (titles, pen-names); their birth and death dates may be unknown or uncertain (g - guess, c - circa); similarly, their occupations may be unknown, or they may have had other jobs; and, for early diarists, I've used 'British' a bit too freely. 2) The biographical summary may not be accurate. It was compiled quickly from various sources, mostly on the internet, and the facts were not checked anywhere near as rigorously as they would have been if they'd been intended for publication in a printed form. 3) The journal dates and descriptors (which are in no particular order) must be treated with caution: since I have not examined the diaries myself, the descriptors are only guesses based on bibliographies, anthologies and internet biographies. 4) For the biography and etext links, I have ignored any sites with charges, and I have avoided, wherever possible, those with pop-ups or too much advertising. I have limited myself to providing three etext links where there is some variety between them. 5) For the original manuscript links, I have limited myself to providing a maximum of two (although, for a few diarists, their original diaries are held in more than two places). 6) I have provided the titles - chosen randomly - for up to three printed editions of the diaries.
