1301 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. See the 18 quilt squares found on our site at item numbers #2551 Rogers, #2346 Kenyon, #2799 Guy, #1301 Rogers, #2895 Wright, #2900 Whitham, #1810 Rogers, #113 Champlin, #779 Wheeler, #1546 Rogers, #1272 Fisk, #1723 Rogers, #380 Rogers, #444 Axtel, #1678 Wheeler, #1806 Benton Rogers, #1827 Thompson, and #2194 Guy.
