Life was pretty hard for anyone living in 1865. The civil war was going on. Some people had slaves, and some people freed slaves. It was hard, especially since many products weren't available. Depression hit many towns as many people lost family members and slaves. A child would have to expect to work in farms and there wasn't school for girls.
