About Hattie

Hattie Whitcher
Harriet Elizabeth Whiting was born in Dakota Territory in 1881, the oldest of ten children, and spent her childhood on a farm near Spencer, Nebraska. Soon after she married William Whitcher in 1918, she began keeping a diary, and she wrote in it daily from January 1, 1920, until 1957, the year before her death. She and Will lived in Nebraska until 1923, when they moved to Todd County, South Dakota, on the Rosebud Indian Reservation.
