The Journals of
Elmira Blaikie
1870-1945
Elmira Ogilvie
Webster was born on August 6, 1870, and died on January 9, 1945. She
married David Morrison Blaikie and they had 10 children. She kept a
diary for much of her life, from 1891 until Christmas Eve, 1944 - the
day before she suffered a stroke that claimed her life. Her journals
were preserved by daughters Flossie and Edith in Alberta for many years.
The diaries were returned to Nova Scotia in 2001 and have been typed by
Judy Miller of Upper Stewiacke, her great granddaughter. Originals are
preserved by the Colchester Historical Museum in Truro, Nova Scotia.
