Notes
- SOURCE: Donegal Cookbook (1971 ed.) (The cookbook was published on the 250th anniversary of Donegal Presbyterian Church, Mt. Joy, Pennsylvania, in the heart of Pennsylvania's Amish/Pennsylvania Dutch Country. The inscription in my copy indicates that Polly gave it to Hazel in January, 1972. Hazel would have been Hazel Brown, Hubby's maternal step-grandmother. She and her friend Polly [Hubby can't remember Polly's last name] lived in Carlsbad, New Mexico in the 1960s and '70s. There is no family history tying Hazel to Amish or Pennsylvania Dutch country.)
