1916 HANDWRITTEN MANUSCRIPT DIARY OF THE BROKENHEARTED WIDOW OF OHIO SUPREME COURT JUSTICE JOSEPH PERRY BRADBURY

1916000139Pomeroy Ohio OH. Fair. 1916. Cloth. On offer is the handwritten manuscript diary of Mrs. J.P. Bradbury Pomeroy Ohio 1916 and as found on genealogical sites Mrs. Bradbury 1853-1918 being Emma L. Woods the widow and second wife of Justice Joseph Perry Bradbury 1838-1915 of the Ohio Supreme Court. Research finds Justice Bradbury and his family in the 1880 census it said that he was then married to his first wife Sarah E. Bradbury who was an invalid and that two other people lived in the house Emma Woods as sister so it seems clear to be his first wifes sister. It also lists Elizabeth Blackwell servant living at the home. The diary itself is written just a few months after the death of Joseph. Her grief as she puts it is too much to bear and almost everyday she writes about him and missing him. She calls him Petty for a nickname too. I thought it was Perry because of his middle name but on closer inspection it is Petty. She starts out her entries on January and writes on almost every available space for everyday see scan but then suddenly stops her entries on July 24th. Entries are extremely interesting probing what it is like for a newly widowed woman who seemed to be deeply in love with her husband as one will see in the following excerpts: How am I to get along without my own dear Petty. I am homesick for my dear Petty. I do not see how I am to go on this way.

How I do miss my own dear Petty and when I think I could not do one thing to keep him it almost kills me. Dearest Petty The river is very high.

I sincerely hope I may be taken to my heavenly home for I know I never could stand it. I hope my life will not be long. I do not want to live to be a real old woman and not a burden to anyone.
