Anna’s Pioneer Journal: February 19, 1851

This past year in Third Grade, I had a pioneer journal. A pioneer is a early traveler to the west. A pioneer journal is the journal that a pioneer keeps of life on the trail.

I’m going to share my entries!


Dear Journal,
It’s noon in New York an Ma just told me great news. We are taking a risk and moving to Oregon. Right now in my room, I still can’t believe than Ma and Pa made such a decision.


I’m feeling really excited. I’m thinking about all the fun we will have in Oregon. One of my friends died of a disease. I can’t wait to get out of here. The reason than we are leaving is than we hope for a better life and richer farmland. I just can’t forget than I have many worries as well. What if we get eaten by an animal? What if we have a shortage of food and water? I’m trying to forget all my worries.


I’m looking forward to a better life in Oregon. I’m also looking forward to lots of fun on the trail.
Anna Clark
