You will note the reversed “S” in Sarah. It is not unusual for young children to reverse letters when they read and write but Sarah stitched the letter correctly in her surname. She could have simply got it wrong and did not take the time to correct her mistake. However, that does not tally with the neatness of her stitching and the diligence she showed in completing her sampler.

She tells us that she was 10 years old when she stitched her sampler in 1859. The earliest reference to Ann is from the census taken in 1851, where she is living near Margam with her father David, her brothers Morgan and John, and her sister Margaret. Her father is a widower, and his parents are living with the family, presumably to help look after the children, of which Ann at 2 years old is the youngest. Her father’s occupation is a collier (miner), and the area she lives in is dominated by coal and copper mining. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThere is no record of Ann’s mother or when and how she died.

They continued to live at Holly Cottage after their retirement and it is possible that the sampler was in Holly Cottage while they lived there and was subsequently gifted to them at some point.

Whilst researching this sampler, we discovered five girls who stitched very similar samplers. They all lived within 1 square mile of each other; in the ensuing years we found several more.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMany of these girls were baptised in the Cathedral of St Peter and St Paul. We believe that the girls shared the same needlework teacher, and all probably attended Darnall School (assuming that the teacher taught in the same school between 1816 and 1844).\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Hands Across the Sea","offers":[{"title":"Soie d'Alger Thread for 37 ct Version","offer_id":40695645765792,"sku":"HATS_MARYRAGGGS_SDF37CT_KIT","price":99.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Soie d'Alger Thread for 30 ct Version","offer_id":40695659888800,"sku":"HATS_MARYRAGGGS_SDF30CT_KIT","price":154.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Printed Chart Only","offer_id":40695645798560,"sku":"HATS_MARYRAGG_CHART_ONLY","price":36.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0145\/2090\/9881\/products\/HATS_MaryAnnRagg_372dd2fd-6ea0-45bc-b9f5-d85d063b5811.jpg?v=1629500514"},{"product_id":"hands-across-the-sea-ann-morris-soie-dalger-thread-kit","title":"Hands Across the Sea - Annie Morris ~ Soie d'Alger Thread Kit","description":"\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff2a00;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/hands-across-the-sea-samplers.com\/product\/annie-morris-a-printed-booklet\/\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eAnnie Morris\u003c\/a\u003e is another lovely little sampler from \u003cem\u003eHands Across the Sea\u003c\/em\u003e Samplers. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe project has been stitched using cross stitch over two threads with the exception of the verse which has been worked in cross stitched over one thread.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe project is suitable for needleworkers of all levels of ability. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChoice of purchasing thread only, Printed Chart only or as full kit with linen.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'San Francisco', 'Segoe UI', Roboto, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif; font-size: 1.4em;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eFull Kit Options:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIncludes linen of choice + 5 skeins of Soie d'Alger threads, Printed Chart Booklet \u003cspan\u003eand\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 2 Tapestry Size 26 Needles \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e(Gift with Purchase + Free Shipping)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLinen Choices:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e30 ct Fat Eighth  - Victoria Sponge Cake - 18\" x 17.5\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e37 ct Fat Eighth - Corn Tassel \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e- 18\" x 17.5\"\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e37 ct Fat Eighth - Russian Tea Cake \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e- 18\" x 17.5\"\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e Au Ver a Soie®, Soie d'Alger Includes:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSDF 236 ~ Forest green ~ very dark\u003cbr\u003eSDF 2542 ~ Yellow beige ~ light\u003cbr\u003eSDF 3315 ~ Violet ~ very dark\u003cbr\u003eSDF 5113 ~ Antique violet ~ medium\u003cbr\u003eSDF 5384 ~ Turquoise ~ light\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e***Please note, this item is excluded from any discounts or sales.\u003c\/span\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Sampler from Nicola Parkman:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"Annie Morris is the sweetest little sampler.
