A couple of my friends didn’t have indoor plumbing until they were 12 or soIndoor plumbing. Seriously.
I recently learned that the two houses my mother grew up in, nor the neighboring village, had electricity or central heat when she left in 52. Both houses are huge (6,000 sq ft + ) with one dating to 1820 and the other several hundred years older than that. Huge coal stove in the kitchen,coal fireplaces in all the rooms and paraffin lamps for light
