Are there any people who lived from the 18th century to the 20th? If so, how many?

There were definitely some: you only need to live 101 years.  But without comprehensive record keeping, there would be few confirmed.  But I found a report on-line that indicated several hundred just in Ireland in 1901.  (San Francisco Call 20 January 1903.)There were quite a number of people born in the 19th century and died in the 21st.  See Oldest people at the Wiki for some exampples.Also two still alive, Susannah Mushatt Jones and Emma Morano - two more if you count the year 1900 as part of the 19th century.I found a report from Age UK (http://www.ilcuk.org.uk/files/Li... ) that indicated several hundred centinarians alive in 2001 just in the UK.   They might be the best people to put your question to for a fuller answer.  (And if you get it, please post it here, since people are interested.)

Are there any published diaries of people living between the 16th to 18th century?

Samuel Sewall, one of the judges in the Salem witch trials, kept a diary from 1674-1700, published free on line: Diary of Samuel Sewall: 1674-1700.  It mentions several episodes in the trials in detail.Ann Putnam, one of the witnesses in the trials, kept a diary, but I'm not sure if the whole diary has been published.The diary of Cotton Mather briefly mentions the Salem witch trials, in which he played a minor role.  It is published and available on line here: Diary of Cotton Mather, 1681-1724 : Mather, Cotton, 1663-1728 : Free Download & Streaming : Internet Archive An 18th century colonial diary was written by William Byrd II , a Virginia planter and slave owner, who kept a diary from 1709 to 1712.

Did people in the 13 colonies during the 1700s have British accents?

Not quite. In the 1600s it would be more so - there had not been enough time for accents to diverge, as the first functioning colonies had only been set up at the beginning of that century. A century later however and we see differences beginning to emerge. See Phonological history of English - After American–British split for lots of detail.Some of the most important changes include:Non-rhotic accents (in which R ceased to be pronounced if it was not before a vowel) developing in England, which would later spread to Australia, New Zealand and South Africa. Altho continued migration to the American colonies would mean a few American accents, such as Boston, AAVE and old Southern, would become non-rhotic, most North American accents would remain rhotic, as would Irish, Scottish and some English and Welsh ones. Rhoticity in English - HistorySome short A vowels in southern England changed to long back As as in palm, father. Hence laugh, path, grass became pronounced as ‘lahf’, ‘pahth’, ‘grahss’. This change occurred across class boundaries (so included both ‘posh’ and Cockney for instance) and was also exported to the Southern Hemisphere colonies, but failed to catch on in northern England, Wales, Scotland, Ireland never mind North America. TRAP–BATH splitNorth American accents generally changed the pronunciation of short O vowels so they were very much like a back A vowel. Thus lot became pronounced as ‘laht’. See Unrounded LOT. There are three other related changes to O vowels around this time in which North American accents led the way: the LOT–CLOTH split, the FATHER–BOTHER merger, and the COT–CAUGHT merger. Of those the last one perhaps did not start in the 1700s, and its effects are still changing American English now; also some non-North-American accents also have some of those changes.
