Household Information - Past and

Present

 

Household

information is what this site is about and there are over 300 articles

here. The genesis of this site was a book published in 1881

called the Household Cyclopedia of General Information. Many of

the articles are from that book and are fascinating from a historical

perspective and for research purposes. At LoveToKnow, we liked

the idea of a site for general household information a lot, so we

decided to add articles that are up to date and germane to today's

living and challenges.
