Rogers: 1850's Hand Sewn Quilt Square of Emmagene Rogers, ME This
is a beautiful old hand signed quilt square, handmade of early fabrics.
18 different squares were found in Portland Maine, Cumberland County
all with different women's family names handwritten on them. They
are all on our ancestor site. This one has the signature Emmagene
Rogers handwritten in center, in old early dip pen handwriting from
the period. Most likely there was a quilting bee and each member
made their own squares. Some of the family members are related by
same surnames, others may also be related family members also. For
whatever reason, the handmade quilt was never finished. This square
is hand sewn with the utmost care. Found in Portland, Maine area,
which is in Cumberland County. Ancestral migration made the mailing
and movement of ephemera common between separated family members,
although we do strongly feel these quilt squares to be Portland,
Maine related, as they came directly out of a house in that vicinity.
