Item Details
Description
  • Title: 1845 Lexington, MA sampler by Susan Locke
  • Date/Period: 1845
  • Materials: Silk on linen
  • Dimensions: 19” x 18" framed
  • Provenance/Additional Info: Susan Simonds Locke. Lexington, MA dated 1845. . Susan Simonds worked this family record pear tree sampler at age 34, after she married Otis Locke. Otis Locke first married Keziah Harrington of Woburn MA and had 5 children. Then he married Susan and they had 5 daughters.. . It is highly unusual for a 34 year old married woman with children to make a family tree sampler dedicated to her siblings. She must have maintained close ties with and been proud of her childhood family.. . Susan included the twelve names and births of herself and all her siblings but not her parents Mixter Simonds and Susannah Converse, who were married in 1811. Susan and her siblings were living in Burlington – Willington - Lexington area of Massachusetts when she worked this family record sampler.. . . No doubt this family record would have aided Susan’s children in sorting out the dizzying array of their aunts and uncles.. . Inscribed at the bottom: Susan Locke – Made year of our Lord 1845 . .
