This 2007 photograph shows a spoon holder that belonged to Mr. & Mrs. Earl T. Korns of Southampton Township, Somerset County, Pennsylvania. At the time of the photo, the spoon holder owned by one of Earl's children, who said that spoons weren't used at the table place settings in Earl's home. Instead, the spoons were kept on the table in this spoon holder, and you took one if needed it. Earl was the son of John Wilson Korns, and operated a farm in Southampton Township.
