I was born in 1936. My early easters were spent in Church that morning, then a group of people with lots of kids would meet at Williams Spring for dinner on the ground ( no picnic table, it was definitely on the ground) And after the meal the kids would hunt easter eggs. They were eggs, we didn't have any candy eggs. You can only eat so many eggs. Williams Spring is located east of Alton on Hwy 160.

Deloris, Wasn't it generally too cold to have dinner on the ground on Easter? Lanita I'm always late. My ancestors arrived on the JUNE flower.
