After obtaining an oral histoy from my grandmother, I am faced with a project about home remedies. I was wondering if anyone knew of any internet resources or resources at all that give information on the history and origin of home remedies or information at all on home remedies. The time period would be about the 1920's and they are possibly related to our Irish heritage. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you, Katie katiec@bu.edu
