War Ration Books
I would like to see a little interaction on this post! I know of and have heard about war ration books and stamps, but know nothing about them first hand. I would like to hear from anyone who has experienced them first hand and can tell me how they were used, and what you may remember about using them.

Holly, I really like your blog - very informational & "pleasing to the eye." I'm glad you liked my story about my Gran and WWII. Unfortunately she passed away in 1990, and all I know is what I put in my blog. Have you looked at Genealogytoday.com? They have a database of "found" ration books with family names on them. I haven't found my Gran's, but I keep hoping...They have some info on them.
