The Mennonites that I know now do not dress differently from the general population although there are many communities of Mennonites that do continue to dress in "traditional" ways and the women wear head coverings. Just this past weekend I was traveling in Eastern Washington and saw a family in the restaurant we were eating in and the women had their head coverings on and long skirts, etc. I asked them if they were Mennonite or Amish and confirmed that they were Mennonite. I'm getting bolder in my old age! LOL! Sorry to go on and on but I've had fun these last 5 years getting to know my Mennonite friends.ellen bhttp://happywonderer.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17947028.post-86765963745157847162015-04-13T09:30:27.937-04:002015-04-13T09:30:27.937-04:00There used to be quit a few Mennonite families liv...There used to be quit a few Mennonite families living in the midwest near where I grew up.

They are also wear straw hats and sometimes the Amish also wear them. They only way to know for sure is to ask them... which I failed to do. I just gave it my best educated guess.Andyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08408980791673021797noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17947028.post-22425584338972752412015-04-13T07:48:21.948-04:002015-04-13T07:48:21.948-04:00Never heard of them, you opened my eyes thereNever heard of them, you opened my eyes thereBilly Blue Eyeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12053172567806569702noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17947028.post-58102701751728336672015-04-13T06:42:28.173-04:002015-04-13T06:42:28.173-04:00Andy, are you sure that this family is Mennonite? ...Andy, are you sure that this family is Mennonite?
