Daily Journal (Photocopies), 1940
Scope and Contents
The John Adams Walters, Sr. papers consist of two collections that have been assembled into one. In the journals Walters had carefully recorded the daily water levels and weather activities, at Lock 10, near Boonesborough on the Kentucky River. The seventy five volumes cover the years 1905 to 1946. The journals and diaries reflect life styles and activities on the Kentucky River. Mr. Walters recorded the day and times various water crafts passed though Lock 10. The diaries for the most part record daily weather conditions, and family activities, travel to friends houses, the death of relatives and friends, and major river events.
