A beadwork picture, 1884


A beadwork picture featuring a central house with a
flowering branch, made 1884.
The picture descended in the
family of Elijah Vanness, born in 1848 in Butler, Ohio, and his
wife Mary Eleanor Jacobs, who he married in August 1868
in Bath, Indiana. It is a representation of their homestead
in Ohio. A family letter accompanies the piece,
which was made by Mary.
