I have in my possession quilt squares that were pasted down through my Pattison family of Dorchester County, Maryland. We believe these to be made by family and friends of my great, great, grandparents, William Winder Pattison and his first wife, Mary Barnes, sometimes referred to as Mary Barnes McNamara.
Two of these quilt squares were signed by Elizabeth Roxburgh and A. W. Sanderson (hard to read). This type of quilt was often created for young about to be married men or ladies, with various friends and relatives contributing a square to be combined to make a bed sized quilt.
I think these quilt squares were made about 1843 in either Dorchester or Somerset Counties of Maryland. Any information on the two individuals mentioned above would be greatly appreciated.
