We purchased the quilt in Denver, CO in July of 2006. My wife and I have done some preliminary research on these names and are including information we have found for specific people associated with the making of this quilt. Below, we are listing those names and those immediate family members names who were alive in Bantry, North Dakota in 1930. We are attempting to assemble a complete history of the women who worked on this quilt, where they came from, their family’s story, where they ended up, when they died. We are hoping to eventually find photos of the women who made each block. This will require finding surviving family members who still have those photos and their contact information. We feel it is important for this quilt to have its history told. It is in excellent condition and deserves to have it history shared, especially with the descendants of the women who made the quilt. This is a huge undertaking, but we have decided that it is worth the effort. Any help with this history gathering would be greatly appreciated. List of names: • Quilt Block number • Name as it appears on the quilt • Associated info on these people 20. Mrs. K. W. Blosser - Mattie E? Blosser b.1889 - K.W.Blosser b.1880 (brother) Larry J? or F? Blosser b.1883 Please post any information you have at this site AND contact us directly. That way we can share the history as it unfolds here with others who may be looking for their history. Thank you. matt & melinda wood matt@mattwood.net
