Some 20 years ago my parents began putting some of their childhood memories to paper at my rather nagging and repetitive insistence. I was a young parent and wanted my children to know what everyday life had been like for their grandparents growing up in the 1930s and 1940s. I was rather lucky because both my parents complied. I hope other family members will add their own stories here.

Sue Poag Timmonsville South Carolina 1930s

Don't remember too much about this town but remember the little boy who said he loved me in front of the whole class. I was so embarassed.

Had a nice teacher there. Georgia got a job at the dime store. I would take my pennies to her and whe would fill up a very small bag full of gum drops for me. I still like gum drops!

I read "Gone With the Wind."
