I found this on another website. The woman stated she's been making this recipe for over 40 years. It's probably the one you are looking for!
Old-Fashioned Date and Nut Bread
3/4 cup water
1/4 cup shortening
1 (8-oz.) pkg. Dromedary Chopped Dates or Dromedary Pitted Dates, snipped

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt

In small saucepan, bring water and shortening to a boil; pour over dates in a medium bowl. Allow mixture to stand 15 minutes.
Stir to blend. Add nuts, eggs and vanilla.
