You should try and contact his son and send him the diary. I know if someone gave the the diary of one of my parents I would want to read it especially if they have passed
I died when he wrote "Didn't get or see any Deer, but there is a certain dear I hope to marry about 5 or 6 years" WHY CAN'T NO ONE TREAT US LIKE THIS THESE DAYS... =(
You realize it's probably because she was underage or he couldn't afford to start a family right :)? ... he had to wait because of real roadblocks rather than just convenience. On average people got married faster in those days.
@@Yoshi-fj8qh What was she bemoaning, the fact that guys aren't willing to Marry or willing to wait? The complaint of today's culture of men is understandable. But looking back at a vague statement and infusing it with what you want it to mean is not helpful.
Imagine if someone made this into a romance movie where a girl purchases a stranger's diary online and she tries to figure out who it belongs too and she wants to find any living relatives (children or grandchildren) and then the girl who found the diary ends up falling in love with one of the living relatives.
HAHAHA. Your idea isn't lame....it just caught me off guard. This is NOT the kind of content I normally get, and therefore, not the sort of comments I'm used to reading. Anyways....that's just sweet and precious and innocent. Have a great day.
That sad! I hope you all do better soon! (What I was thinking that "no school today" might mean "i wanna die" but it's just not written down sme way. Sorry, I don't know if my writing make any sense😅)
Chloe Peach joanna (the one that posted this video) has bought a few diaries before, so i think what the person is implying is that it’d be funny if she got hold of dot or Barbara’s diary so we could see the other side of the story
Woah... is she still around? One thing he said was that he went to see her in Brattleboro which is in Vermont, and he was from New Hampshire. Is your great grandmother from around that area?
Funny story:I work as a CNA in South Carolina. There is a woman whom I assist who is named Hilda but her real name is Dorothy. She grew up in New Hampshire ! She always fancied a man that she grew up with- only problem is that he always bounced between her and a woman on her street named Barbara- he went off into the military and when he came back he proposed and she said no! I thought this was very interesting... even if it’s not the gentleman’s, funny coincidence
Wait, I don't get it. Why would someone whose real name is 'Dorothy', call herself 'Hilda'? Sounds like a Beatles song... "Her name was Magill, and she called herself 'Lil', but everyone knew her as 'Nancy.'" 🦝 🎶
His son is probably the one who sold the diary in the first place. How would a STRANGER get ahold of some random guys diary?! It HAD to be a family member of this man who sold the diary and the family member most likely to inherit random things or diaries are the children of the deceased
Send this diary to his family, this would be such an amazing gift to his son. I always write my diaries thinking of things I want my children to know about me.
“If you murder someone, you probably shouldn’t put it in your diary - that’s just a tip from me” Hahahaha Love you Joanna! So happy you’re back doing videos like these - even with your addiction to smelling what you have purchased. 😉
This was probably the best stranger diary I've watched- Everything written in it was just so soothing. That line "no deer, but there's a certain dear I wanna marry" Gosh! Thats beautiful
This is the reason my dad scolded me for having a diary when I was a teen. He said someone one day will read it, and you’re not some literary giant or a politician 🤣 so I was not allowed to have one
That's kinda sad, I think a diary is useful to have so that you can write down arguments you have with your parents and stuff like that and read it back once you're calm and detect what you should do differently the next time, and just to calm down from any situation
Wow. So he won't even let you practice or anything? Journals and diaries can actually be practice for aspiring writers, not to mention therapeutic for people who have a lot of feelings, or are going through a tough time.
I really hope that no one will ever read my diary. Not because it is private but everybody writes nice and poetic and they have an interesting life with drama an love... and than there is me: "yo hi I just want to tell you something but I forgot it lol lol lol, I just eat a toast nice"
Fr😂 I still write in cursive and some people I know will either be like “omg you write in cursive?😮” or they’ll say “no one writes in cursive anymore.” There are a lot of people who can’t even read cursive today.
What worries me is that, since they stopped teaching cursive to children, now they won't be able to read or understand old letters, diaries, even photo captions, from their older relatives and ancestors! 😢
"She got a cheque of 46 dollars from dad..." Me: Oh that sounds nice. That was a good chunk of money in 1946 and they don't sound rich. "...to buy a vaccum cleaner" Me: Of course, it wouldn't be 1946 without any money a woman gets being for some kind of household thing.
Reading stranger's diarys from eBay is a fun genre, glad you've done another. You should also print the obit and census records you found and store them in the diary to preserve the record.
Woah, reading people's diaries are really these interesting?? Mine are just full of dark and negative suicidal thoughts that give me headache reading it back after years 😂😂
this diary: "might read and go to bed" my diary: "I suppress the memories of her ignoring me in the cold light of her television for those of a nostalgic presence in my mind to surface of nothing but her laughs while we add onto jokes that will only be funny when her friends leave in the warm summer light. I'll never forget those yellows and oranges that the sun gave off, the soft glow that hit whatever reflective surface under the sunlight, for that city felt as nothing but a fever dream that you remember for the rest of your days just trying to live out. maybe my perception was rose tinted, but it never cancelled out the green I saw in the leaves and grass, his eyes and his sweaters"
Dot's Diary Entry: Dear diary, I bought a red dress and I like it very much. Although, on a much less happy note, {Name Unknown} seemed a little down today. I am unsure why. B.B.'S Diary Entry: Dear diary, I saw {Name Unknown} last night at the Christmas Concert and he seemed to be fixated on my blue dress. What a nerd. Name Unknown's Diary Entry: I like my diary.
He's sadly no longer with us, but imagine if Joanna found the diary of someone who happened to be still alive. If she read mine I'd be embarrassed out of my mind lol.
My "diary" (which I have been unsuccessful in filling) says at the front somewhere, "If anyone finds this and wants to publish this or whatever then I'm sorry for the grammatical errors. You can fix them if you want." Honestly, *I don't know*
Stuff like this makes me wish I'd saved my diary from the 80s as a tween and teen. I filled an entire book with all kinds of stuff from crushes to experimental drug use, losing my virginity at 13 to a 17 year old, to time in a mental hospital and other stuff. Unfortunately when I got older it brought back bad memories so one night in the early 90s I put it in a pan and lit it on fire in the kitchen sink.
Joanna, I saw where a couple viewers suggested you find the son & send him the diary. I think that's a fantastic idea !! By the way, I was born in 1948, have journaled since Nov. 29, 1976 , 6 1/2 yrs. into marriage. And ! I enjoy your videos ! So does my husband. Your comments crack me up sometimes !
I lost my journals from Fall 1993 to early 1999. They were in a box of books I posted from Vegas when I moved in 99. They got lost in the system, I've heard that dead packages are auctioned & sold. Is the website you bought this from a thing? They are handwritten on looseleaf 3 ring notebook paper in binders. I resumed keeping a journal by the end of 2000, as I recover from coma & amnesia. I use a typewriter now.
At first I thought, “This guy would be around 94 now. He might still be around.” But then you did some research and found his obituary. Good work on the research!
I love reading people's diaries or notes, it's like a trace of their existence. My diary is overly dramatic and I started it 2005 when I was 15 and wrote it for about 4 years. It's embarrassing, but I love it because it was a very important time in my life, when I was dealing with my childhood trauma and became friends with my wife. An encounter that changed everything for me. I remember the first sentence in the diary was "I wanted cherry blossoms. In those days when the rain blocked my view like an endless veil". So cringy 😅 but I still think it would be neat if someone reads it when I'm dead 😆
Just found out your channel, it's so much fun reading other people's personal lives, and it inspired a lot! Thanks for the content and humor you brings! Love it !
Bro that is my great great grandpa’s diary... he had the same one, I have read it before and my grandparents wanted to sell it sooo, I guess they sold it to you! I’m glad you bought it so it could come to good use!! Have a wonderful day!!!
Great video-I randomly looked you up because I liked your buzzfeed videos and was so excited you had a channel! Can you find the relatives of the guy who wrote the diary? Giving the diary back to them would be such a good follow up video!!
!!!! this guy is from vermont or new hampshire! it makes a lot of sense, brattleboro (not sure how to spell it) is a vermont town very close to new hampshire and pretty agricultural. vermont also harbored a lot of soldiers! i’m not done with the video so i’m not sure if it’s confirmed yet, this might be useless haha.
So after an hour of pausing and reading the entries you showed, collecting names, and hints of his location and dates and searching through the census I found him through his aunt H which he mentioned and the photography studio he mentioned helped with the town. I finally found him and I also found his son. I wanted to put a name to his story. You should start making digital copies and making a blog where we can read the whole journals and you’re input.
Maybe he didn’t write much about his crush on the “heartbroken” page is because something upset might’ve happened between them and he didn’t want to mention to much about it...

Joanna Borns this is very interesting. Glad I stumbled upon your page!
You should send the diary to his son!
Joanna can I send you my diary when I'm done lol
Ok I did like 1,000 TIMES
You should try and contact his son and send him the diary. I know if someone gave the the diary of one of my parents I would want to read it especially if they have passed
I second this. Imagine how happy his son would be!
I third that
I fourth that
I fifth this
I seventh this!!
I died when he wrote "Didn't get or see any Deer, but there is a certain dear I hope to marry about 5 or 6 years" WHY CAN'T NO ONE TREAT US LIKE THIS THESE DAYS... =(
He does for me :'(

@@carlchristensen4299 um that wasn't what they mean. They wondered why guys these days can't treat and think about girls the way he did.
@@Yoshi-fj8qh What was she bemoaning, the fact that guys aren't willing to Marry or willing to wait? The complaint of today's culture of men is understandable. But looking back at a vague statement and infusing it with what you want it to mean is not helpful.
they do. you have to change your circle of friends.
Imagine if someone made this into a romance movie where a girl purchases a stranger's diary online and she tries to figure out who it belongs too and she wants to find any living relatives (children or grandchildren) and then the girl who found the diary ends up falling in love with one of the living relatives.
sumn like Letters to Juliet
In a similar fashion, Amélie Nothomb wrote a book about a person falling in love with the author of a diary that he... just killed.
Marissa Jay Hallmark LOL but I don’t like Hallmark anymore
HAHAHA. Your idea isn't lame....it just caught me off guard. This is NOT the kind of content I normally get, and therefore, not the sort of comments I'm used to reading.
Anyways....that's just sweet and precious and innocent. Have a great day.
You should write a book about this. I would definitely read it.
"got up late. didn't feel good"
ah relatable, how all our lives begin
so true
To sum up our lives
This diary is like “no school today”
My diary is like “heyyyy I wanna die 😌✌️”
hee hee omg your closeup profile scared me 😂
hee hee it really be like that sometimes
My diary is like.. heyy .....dear diry lets just try a plan to suicide😜
I Only Scribble Heathers?
That sad! I hope you all do better soon! (What I was thinking that "no school today" might mean "i wanna die" but it's just not written down sme way. Sorry, I don't know if my writing make any sense😅)

“Ugh so musty” continues to smell
I legit screaming to my phone "so stop smelling it!" 😂😂
Ik she's so funny 😂
i don't think anyone would want to read my old dairy because 50% is bad fanfiction and the other 50% overly dramatic teen angst
Saaaaame kind of
Probably fanfics abt BTS😂

probably some include namjoons porn links JIN

We buy bullet journals now

What's funny about this is that before I watched this, a ad came up and it was about Reading Eggs.
"This guy is kind of a straightforward nerd" she says, based off of his thoughts in a DIARY when he was still in high school.
