Sewing Chair
This low wooden rocker belonged to my
mother, Lillie Strahl Cardinal (1877-
1948). I don't know when or how it was
acquired, but I remember it as an old
chair when I was a child.
Originally, the chair was finished with
a dark brown stain and had a brown cane
seat (fragments of the cane are still
there). In the late 1920's, Mother
installed a dime store plywood
replacement seat. At some time, one of
the six back splints was broken; I
removed the opposite one to maintain
symmetry when I painted the chair gray
in the 1950's.

Child's Dishes
This set of china is a small tea set for
children to play with. There are also two
pewter castors.
These items belonged to my mother, Lillie
Strahl Cardinal, and date back to her
childhood in the 1880's. I do not know
exactly how or when she got them, but
they were among her prized possessions.
