This was handed down to Laura (Tami and Rachel's mother) from her grandmother, Mary Akroyd Eschman, whose parents immigrated to Dresden, Ohio from Batley, England in the early 1800s. The Akroyds owned and operated a hotel in Dresden which stood at the corner of 9th and Main Streets. Tami and Rachel have made these every Christmas without fail. Decorating them was and is the highlight of the holiday season.
