Autograph books were once very popular, with young men and women memorizing clever couplets or making up their own for use in these autograph books. Small stickers or drawings were also added. Pressed flowers were also used to memorize special events and special people. As families migrated these became ways for loved ones to recall the 'good old days' and ones left behind.
