My G Grandmother was the same way, but I decided it was something to be proud of! The Dacy family is tough and times were very hard, they found a way to make a living when many people were not able to do so. Very proper people lately seem to enjoy telling me just how proper their backgrounds are...and I so enjoy the looks on their faces when I say "oh, well my GG Grandparents used to run bootleg whiskey!" Sometimes they have the gaul to say "well we all have things in our past we are not proud of" and at that I just have to say, "I am extremely proud of my ancestors...they were WONDERFUL" Bootlegging was just a matter of supply and demand after all. I say- give the people what they want! There could never have been a fabulous juke joint without a bootlegger out their supplying it with liquid inspiration.
