You

For
example,
if
you
want
to
search
for
information
about
the

Mountains
from
1900-1950,
you
would
type
in:

When
you
use

Google
looks
for
the
exact

you
use

Note:
This
is
an
interview
with
ONE
person
from
Appalachia.
Do
NOT
assume
that
everyone
else
in
Appalachia
is
just
like
her.
That
would
be
stereotyping
and
incorrect.
