My Grandpa gave these spoons to me years ago. He said they came from his Grandpa. A lot of them have dates, some have names on them.
I imagine sometimes who might have used them and what they looked like, and what were they eating?.

Nancy,I love the story behind those silver spoons! Now, if only they could talk and tell us about their lives and what America was like for them all those years ago.

I love your story about your spoons, Nancy Jo - and I adore the fact that your family seems to personalize special items. What treasures!

Oh Nancy Jo, they are precious…
Use them and let your mind wonder as you think about Ancestors using them!

I wonder if they prefer the food from your great-great Grandpa's time or today's food LOL!
