I see the name Orpah, which is from the Biblical story of Ruth. The famous Oprah Winfrey's name comes from that but her Mom spelled it wrong by mistake. (At least that's the story she has told.) I do love seeing a quilt and hearing details of the family. What a sad ending for Sophia's husband when he husband died in that tragic workplace accident. It must have been a terrible time for the entire family. Thanks so much for sharing the fascinating history with us.thatfabricfeeling.wordpress.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00207386494389486604noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-289466493716180465.post-33766820022379712332020-06-27T14:21:03.762-05:002020-06-27T14:21:03.762-05:00I love seeing the old houses - wonderful that it s...I love seeing the old houses - wonderful that it still survives.
