Cari, I too would love to have a copy of your mom's memoirs. My dad also grew up 1897-1920 , and I was born in 1928, in Meriwether Co. I still remember the huge iron pots, with fires under them, for doing the wash, the old wood-burning cooking stoves, outhouses, etc. Those were wonderful days when everyone knew and trusted their neighbor and left their houses unlocked.
