I got these from Carmichael California, but the location places in the notebook, several say Oxford Michigan, from a set of handwritten books with the dates starting in 1908 and going through the 1960’s.
This nice set of loose papers and two handwritten books has some very interesting family history in the older spiral notebook; she has listed recipes and the names of the contributing person as well as the date and their age when they passed away.
Here is the list of family names, dates and recipes associated with each person.
Visit my ebay store to find some great kitchen utensils and collectables to go along with these vintage and antique recipes.
