Sarah Flear Sampler 1806 PDF
Sarah Flear Sampler 1806 PDF
Sarah was christened on March 11th, 1792, so her birth could have been late 1791 or early 1792. It would made her about 14 when she stitched her sampler.
Sarah married Joseph Neal on 11 June 1818, in Benington, Lincolnshire, England. They were the parents of at least 4 sons and 5 daughters.
The reproduction shows what the sampler would have looked like back in the day. There are a few areas you can see the fabric would have been light. The ground fabric is much more fragile than the threads themselves.
