Old Fashioned Pound Cake

My recipe book was handed down to my mother to me. In it are recipes that were hand written by my grandmother over 70 years ago. My goal is to document these old recipes and make them in the way that my grandmother would have. Some of these recipes are from my great-great grandparents from South Carolina - before the Civil War.
