At the beginning of the diary, Lydia Wasson, a devout Quaker, chronicles her life from birth to 1826 when the regular diary entries begin.

She and her husband and many members of their family are buried in the Quaker Cemetery near there; see http://www.dunelady.com/laporte/cemeteries/quaker.htm \"The diary starts out on 1826 when Lydia is about 25 years of age. She writes about life starting from her birth and then continues writing until a few months before her death at the age of 52 in 1853. …on her death bed when she couldn't write anymore, her daughter Charlotte took over writing for her. On the first page of the diary you'll find her original obituary from 1853. \" \"Lydia's diary consists of 105 pages of which 86 are devoted to her life here on earth and finally her death. The rest of the pages were written by other members of the family and their thoughts on their mother and grandmother. At the end of the diary, her grandson William Wasson Cox writes a tribute to his grandmother and [painted a watercolor] \" \"A brief synopsis of what I learned from reading the diary and also what kinds of entries you'll find between the pages: Lydia was born on February 3rd, 1800 in North Carolina. She and her family did not stay there long and ended up traveling to Whitewater and Middle Fork Indiana. She tells about how her grandfather, Edward Bond had a \"false paper\" drawn up against him for teaching the truth and it was brought up at a Quaker meeting and he almost lost his life over it. She had a very difficult life during her young teenage years and her sister Sarah died at the young age of 18. Her father sold his place at Whitewater and bought some land and built a cabin at Flat Rock. See: http://www.hcgs.net/quakers.html \" \"She married Jebial Wasson and soon after in 1823 her daughter Charlotte was born. Among other things, her entries are full of traveling throughout the area to the quarterly meetings mentioning many names of the old pioneers. Her life is very difficult but she is an amazing woman full of core Quaker values. She also has a son by the name of Jesse.
