Reply To: what was your first memory and how old were you?

one time this 90something year old lady was talking about her first memories, it was so interesting, the world sounded so vacant and young. i think she said she recalled sitting on a wooden porch at a farm with no electricity when she was a baby… i guess thats my oldest “second hand memory”. woulda been around 1904 or so in the midwest.

anyone got an older second or third hand memory? what was it like back then?
