Bentley heirloom for sale on EBAY!!!!
Hello,
I am not a Bentley relative.. at least not that I've found yet.. but while searching through different quilts on Ebay (the auction web site address is www.ebay.com) I found a quilt with major history attached to it.. and thought it really should go to a relative.. if one could be found.I must clarify.. I don't own this quilt.. I just am admiring it.. but can't afford it either!!! The posting claims that it was from the Bentley family of Ohio and that they took it with them when they headed west on the Oregon Trail.This beautiful crazy quilt was then given back to a relation in Colorado when the original owners passed on.Supposedly, there is no relative now to pass it on too.. however.. there must be someone!!!The unique thing about this quilt is that it also comes with a book of Bentley genealogy records that was kept by the original maker of this quilt.. or something like that.. If interested you can go to ebay.. the auction ends on 1/21 I think... or email me at [email protected] and I'll try to help you find it.. If it were my family name.. I"d email the owner and ask them about the genealogy records and the names in it!!!
Good Luck... If anyone ever finds heirlooms with my family name attached.. please let me know!!! HA!
