Surnames: AREY, BRUBAKER, BRUCE, COOPER, DUGAN, FLORA, GANDY, HANDLE, HEASTON, HYLTON, INGREGAM, McQUEEN, MOE, MORGAN, PENDLETON, RINK, WAGONER Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/SY.2ADI/1687 Message Board Post: I have a quilt that has been passed down to me that belonged to my great grandmother. I believe it was made by a group of women at the Brethren Church near Yoder. Each square that was made was signed by the person who made it. I have been able to trace several of the names to the area and several are related to me. The names on the quilt (some are hard to read) are as follows: Mrs. Hylton (Nina), Hazel Cooper, Ivis Ingreham, Mrs. G. Moe (Grace), Mrs. Bessie Rink, Blance Gandy, Mrs. Morgan, Floy A. Gandy, Clara Gandy, Inez Handle, Grace Arey, Lydia Flora, Eva Pendleton, Nina Arey (Hylton), Mrs. John Cooper, Eva Heaston, Mrs. Ida Heaston, Mabel Flora, Frances McQueen, Bessie Heaston, Clena Bruce, Mrs. W. H. Cooper (Edna), Carrie Dugan, Elizabeth Brubaker, Mrs. Wagoner, Mae Bruce, Frances Hylton, Mrs. McQueen, Mrs Arey (Daisey). I would be happy to take a picture of the squares and share them with whoever would like them.
