Names in the Cook Book

Gwynne McFarling Daniel was kind enough to identify some of the names in the 1962 cook book. Mrs. Chester Smith was Quay Smith's mother. Mrs. Hellweg was a friend of Katherine Rogers while Mrs. Jack Bryson was the wife of Dr. Bryson in Tupelo and a friend of the Williams family. Mrs. Lurene Senter was in the catering business and prepared the reception for Gwynne's wedding. Mrs. Ray and Mrs. Godbold were wives of Methodist ministers in Plantersville. Gwynne could not identify Mrs. J. A. Smith. Thanks to Gwynne for the information.

Some years ago, as part of her job Carole did presentations to various groups, especially senior groups; I went with her to one in Amory, and Reverend and Mrs. Crawford Ray were in the audience. I don't remember the year, but they had just been to Plantersville to attend June Coggin's 80th birthday party.
