Whittier Birthday Book

Posted on February 3, 2022 by Lisaperryjd

Whittier Birthday Book was published by Houghton Mifflin, starting in 1881. The book contains poems by John Greenleaf Whittier and birth dates of famous people, arranged by calendar month with spaces to write other information. The copy of the book that my dad has is from the Swales or Nelings, and contains birth dates and some death and marriage dates for family and friends.
