Martha Ballard’s diary provides an intriguing look into the lives of women in late eighteenth and early twentieth century Maine. That it exists at all is rarity. Martha Ballard’s life was both unique and ordinary and the pages of her diary reveal how men and women acted or reacted to the mundane and in some cases horrific aspects of life in Hallowell, Maine. Ballard and her neighbors conformed to a set norms or role expectations based upon their gender.
