A. B. Clough diary (1887)
I selected the four Clough Sisters as a center point for the Clough pagesbecause not much information is availabele  about their parents, Freeman and Acksah Brown Clough, the product of the union of Freeman Clough and Achsah Brown (see below).  My Great Grandmother Nellie E. Clough was born in Providence Rhode Island on August 12, 1854, married Winfield Scott Snyder about 1880 in Mitchell Dakota, (now  South Dakota) , and died (& buried) in Tacoma, Washington on August 13, 1932.    Below is the Brown/Clough history and genealogy.
At the time of this writing, I have in my possession, the day to day diary of Achsah Brown Clough from year of 1887, from which I will be gleaning information about daily live and her goings on, so I will share on the diary pages of this site.
