Caroline Watkins lived in Lawson, Missouri, in the second half of the 1800s. Her handwritten recipe collection was found in a dusty old trunk in the attic. Now it is in the library of William Jewell College in Liberty, Missouri.
It is fun to leaf through it online. You can see the actual pages, but they are typed out, too. There are also biographical notes, photos of her and her kitchen. I had a good time visiting the site. :)
