Ralph Josselin

Ralph Josselin (26 January 1616^[1] – August 1683)^[a] was the vicar of Earls Colne in Essex from 1640 until his death in 1683. His diary records intimate details of everyday farming life, family and kinship in a small, isolated rural community, and is often studied by researchers interested in the period, alongside other similar diaries like that of Samuel Pepys.^[2]
