Family Quilt

4 Comments

The age of the quilt that is the subject of the photographs below is unknown.  But the list of names on it suggest that it was at least the early ’40’s because Granddad Bingham died in ’42.  But I believe it is several years older.  All of the Attaway “sisters” are on it except Aunt Stella and, of Course, Aunt Maude Belle Attaway Hansard.   Two of the names are difficult to make out, and I do not recognize one, so I have made a best guess.  Please let me know of any corrections.

The names embroidered are in seven rows of 6 patches each, and are as follows from left to right:

Top row: Juanita McCoy, Leeama Ewing, Edna young, Grandad Bingham, Odell Bingham, Millie Neely
Second row: Beatrice Bingham, Nannie Mae B, Sallie Bingham, Hollie Brown, Cleo Duncan, Stella Neely
Third row: Mrs B L Jones, C O Bingham, Lela Gobble, Lavada Duncan, J C McCoy, Bill Bingham
Fourth row: James Bingham, Bell Bingham, Dollie Kiser, Ted Kiser, Mozelle Bingham, Alton Bradshaw
Fifth row: Gordon Neely, Manerva McCoy, Ethel Wren, Tommy Duncan, J T Kiser, Rozelle Andrews
Sixth row: Ray Neely, Tempie Bradshaw, Beatrice Northcutt, Audie Smith, Mary Bingham, Opal Mae Bradshaw
Seventh row: Lola Neely, Esta Bingham, Mother Attaway, Robert Bingham, Lillie Smith, W L Ewing

The 2013 Attaway Gathering

The first group of photos below are those taken of the entire group by Amber at this year’s reunion.  Click on the “thumbnail” of one of them for the full size picture. Please scroll down for the McCoy group photos she also took, as well as another set of photos taken during the reunion.

Below are the group photos of the McCoy family members from the 2013 reunion

Below are some miscellaneous pictures from the reunion.  Sorry but the lens was smudged a bit in some of these.  The quilt hanging on the coat rack in one of these photos is of unknown age, but because of some of the names on it, it is believed to be at least the early 1940’s.
