"The use of old radiators in the “’stills” led to lead in the moonshine."

My mother's dad (Bless their souls) spent a year in prison in the 1920's for moonshining.

Prohibition Of Alcohol

[SunkenCiv]

Prohibition here wasn’t very strongly enforced. My mom (mostly German ancestry) always lived in a house with the brew going somewhere by the stove. There’s a rural tavern a few miles from where I grew up; in the early 1990s a woman retired from there, having worked as a barmaid since she was 15. Doing the math showed she started during Prohibition. :’D
