AbstractThe correspondence of John and Anna Graves, who moved to the Ohio frontier in Sept 1836, gives us some insight, not into the world of "movers and shakers," but rather into the thoughts, emotions, dreams, and fears of a young married couple who left their homes in the East for an uncertain future on the frontier.
