Marshfield Photo Album
Author: Carol is the owner of the below tavern Quilt (or autograph quilt).
She would like to date using the "autographs" on the blocks. There are 20 autographs
(some repeats) to a block and there are 5 blocks to a row. There are 6 rows. A
few of the names are familier.It appears that most of the signatures are folks
from Marshfield WI and near surrounding areas.
Carol is trying to date the quilt - and it find out the quilt history. You can contact
her by clicking on her name below. Here are the clues so far:
When Carol's mother-in-law, Marie (nee WILSON) JOHNSON passed away in 1981, the
quilt was found in a trunk. One name which was recognized immediately was her
mother, Mrs. August (Anna) (nee NEUMANN) WEISTER b 18 Aug 1883 d 20 Oct 1944.
Denny NELSON (local historical society) thought it sounded like a "tavern
quilt". He explained that on a Tavern quilt, folks for a quarter or so, would
have their name stitched on a block. Then, the quilt would be raffled off.
The next clue was from Carol's husband who said some of his WEISTER uncles may have
operated a tavern in Marshfield. This line of query has not as yet been researched..
After seeing the names on the quilt, Lori SCHELLER (a great-niece of Marie JOHNSON) sent
Carol an
[obit from the Langlage County WI Message Board], with some of
the names on it. But, no mention of Marshfield.

MAK recommends Vintage Textile Soak - a product that antique dealers and quilt and
linen collectors love. It safely removes yellowing and/or brown spots that can
develop on vintage quilts, quilt tops, wedding dresses, christening gowns, and
linens of all kinds after years of contact with the oils in wood, as a result of
being stored in cedar chests, linen closets, or dresser drawers. One pound of
Vintage Textile Soak is beautifully packaged in a reproduction vintage rose fabric
bag which includes an information and directions tag tied with an organdy ribbon.
It is available at most quality quilt shops.

Carol and for that we thank her.
