BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH

Annie Bogan (fl. ca.1845-1885) spent her early life in Taylorsville, Bartholomew County, Indiana. She was apparently married from there to Mr. Dailey, whose first name does not appear. She spent part of her married life in southwestern Iowa, making friends in Farragut, Indianola, Riverton, and Shenandoah. She seems to have left Iowa in 1882. She had a son, Morris E. Dailey, and two brothers, William Bogan and S. G. Bogan.

SCOPE AND CONTENT

This collection consists of a "friendship album" with inscriptions-- poems and notes of friendship-- written between 1860 and 1882. Several of the early inscriptions are from school friends; others are from Civil War soldiers, including her brother S. G. Bogan who joined the 91st Indiana Regiment in October 1862. Finally there are entries from later friends in Iowa.
