This Blog focuses on Ancestor Stories, both the stories themselves about my family’s ancestors and discussions of where they come from and how to prepare and share them. These stories may be non-fiction or fiction – we will always tell which is which, of course. Also see my KINNICK blog and The HOMEPLACE Series Blog, left sidebar, scroll down.

My Hometown on Monday - Dwight Williams to open locker in Coon Rapids
My Hometown on Monday
Dwight Williams to open locker in Coon Rapids
October 22, 1937 - 75 Years Ago - 1 Nov 2012 CRE, p. 4:
Dwight Williams, local ice man, has leased the east room of the Speiker building and is remodeling it to install refrigerated lockers. Electricity will be used to create below-zero freezing temperatures in which meats or other food stuff can be kept for an indefinite period. This locker system has been installed in many cities and towns in the state and is proving highly satisfactorily according to Mr. Williams who says it will be some weeks before he will have it ready for operation.
Families are Forever! ;-)
