Meek Rolling Pin Becomes Town Legend Since 1888
Grace Meek of 306 Harris Avenue preserves a 41 year old poplar rolling pin known as the Meek rolling pin. Carved from a poplar limb in Ironton Ohio, its 20 inch body helped bake biscuits and strawberry shortcake. The pin is passed down through generations and never harms a husband, with future use planned for Meek’s daughter Helen.
