Hi peoples. My mother bought an old (1854) quilt at auction. It was from the estate of a Kathleen (Caddoo) Makie. [sic] The quilter was an Eliza Augusta Morton (nee Odell). they were from the Westchester and Hudson Valley area. Does anyone have any thoughts on how to trace its history further? Yes I know, how many needles are in this haystack? Cheers, Fay

Odell is a big name in the area. I believe they are original settlers. There is a Husdon Valley Historic Society that may be able to help you.
