Kendall, Elizabeth

Source: Crawfordsville Weekly Journal 22 July 1869

A correspondent sends us the following: Elizabeth Kendall of Potato Creek Prairie is now 77 years of age, has good health, a clear intellect, and can sew, knit and do any kind of light house work.  She has just finished a quilt of 4,030 pieces, all the work on which she has done herself, it occupying her three weeks.  She was born in Woodford County, Kentucky, moved to Montgomery County, Ohio in 1815 and thence to Montgomery County, Indiana in 1831 settling where she now resides. She has been a widow 30 years. – thanks to Martha Ellen F for this neat find about this fine lady
