<p>[QUOTE="RedHillRascal, post: 9879251, member: 68394"]Hi everyone! I have this antique bedspread and I'm trying to figure out how old it is. Supposedly, it was made by two of my 5th great-aunts, Jane and Lucy. Jane died in 1819 and Lucy died in 1826, so if family tradition is correct, the bedspread should have been made before 1819. I'm trying to confirm or deny this.</p><p><br /></p><p>It's very large and is made in three strips connected together. The edges are all fringed. Does anyone have an idea of when this could have been made?</p><p>[ATTACH=full]496228[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]496229[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]496230[/ATTACH] </p><p>[ATTACH=full]496231[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
