<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ladybranch, post: 137266, member: 44&quot;]I&#039;m a displaced or misplaced Yankee! Born and raised in Southbridge near Sturbridge. My grandparents shopped in at least one of the stores displayed at Sturbridge Village when they were growing up. The store was moved up to Sturbridge Village from their area of CT. Our Youth Fellowship had candlelight services at the white steepled church in Sturbridge Village several times. Both of my parents were of Windham Co., CT. My family moved to Mississippi in 1960 when my step-father&#039;s plant started having severe Union problems. It was right in the mist of the Civil Rights troubles!!! Needless to say us transplanted Yankees kept a low profile in those turbulence times. &quot;The South shall rise again&quot; attitude was very prevalent with those of my parents generation, and not with my generation. I had no trouble with any one. I didn&#039;t stay down here long for was at college and then spent a year in NYC. I returned South to work in Memphis, TN, where I met and married a west Tennessee boy. Wellllll, he was once a boy!</p><p><br /></p><p>I have nieces in upper state Vermont, north of Boston to Worcester and Springfield. You can&#039;t shake a tree in CT, MA, or any other New England with a cousin or 2 falling out.</p><p><br /></p><p>--- Susan[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
