Pickles family : Elizabeth, Helen and John D.
Description
John D. and Elizabeth (nee Seavey) Pickles were married on June 14, 1877. Helen was their daughter, born in 1885. Elizabeth died on October 25, 1895, probably before the quilt was made. It was believed she was named on the quilt as a memorial.
John was pastor of the First Methodist Episcopal Church from 1883-1885. During his tenure as pastor, he married three of the couples named on the quilt: George and Clara Fogg, Herbert and Christie Chandler, and Walter and Gertrude DeHaven Jones.
