And how would this apply to the 1950s and '60?

Raubun County, GA but if I recall correctly it was all over the South and
covered periods of late19th to early 20th Century. FoxFire 9 was
Published by Anchor Books and contains recipes adn Info (prices, services,
etc for the General Store in Hayesville, NC in the 1840s

I'm looking for information on what people cooked and ate in the South
in the 50s and 60s, for a novel I'm writing. Specifically, there is a
large poor mountain family in northwestern North Carolina in the early
60s and then a relatively wealthy family in the Outer Banks in the
eastern part of the state, later in the decade. One character is part
of both families so I will be contrasting both diets. Any information
or resources on the food of those regions and at that time period would
be much appreciated, and of course credited in the book.

Thank you.
