HIGHWAY 69 AT THE "V
jtury." The earliest mention of a
sampler so far found is in 1502,
¡made by Elizabeth of York. An-
, ¡other sampler made by Anne Go-
Howard Lloyd, Emmitt Lloyd, wer is on dte , jn the Essex
Carl Lloyd, Odis Lloyd and C. J. Institute in Salem! Massachusetts.
L'oyd- This sampler was made in Eng-
land about 1610 but brought to
America when Anne, who became
the wife of Governor Endicott,
came here to live. There was the
sampler of Loara Standish, dau-
ghter of Miles Standish, made
probably before 1643. She work-
ed upon her sampler, "Loara Sta-
ndish is my name". This became
a custom and was the fore-runner
of that long series of girls who
embroidered their names upon
the sampler they made. It seems
that not all girls were inclined to
do samplers as this example
shows: "Patty Poke did this &
hated every stitch of it, as she I
much rather read". The comm- j
onest samplers all contained the
alphabet and later the numbers
1 through 10. All needlework si-
gned and dated is classified as a
Sampler. In the late 18 century,
Gcneological samplers and great
buildings were the vogue. New
England is said to be the home
of the Samplers. It has seemed
¡wise to the collectors and students
of samplers to focus attention on
j that period in which sampler work
was at its best and so no samp-
lers which were made after 1830
are of great historic value. Mrs.
Stevens stated that History will re-
cord that this generation and age
will show a revival of this art.
Members were then invited to
show and discuss heirloom pie-
ces of needlework made by lov-
; ed ones many, many years ago.
| Mrs. Frank Ebaugh had brou-
ght a hand woven coverlet and
an embroidered picture. Mrs. Eu-
jaugh also had a Sampler made
in 1850. the cloth had been hand
woven and the thread spun on a
spinning wheel.
A punchwork piece of embroi-
dery was brought by Mrs. Gay.
Two samplers were brought by
Mrs. Todd and Mrs. Gay. Mrs.
Kelsay had a hand made lace
handkerchief and some long kn-
itted children's stockings. Mrs.
W. F. Beall had her Grandfath-
er's home spun vest and a pic-
ture of him wearing this same
vest. She also had her father's
hand made baby dress and a pic-
ture showing him in this dress.
If her father were alive today he
would be 109. This was a most
enjoyable meeting and made ev-
eryone conscience of our Great ¡
Heritage.
The meeting was attended by
the following: Mmes. Tom Dean
Stevens, M. L. Gray, Fred Hea-
lth, W. F. Beall, Frank Ebaugh.
