If I Die Young.

Tonight my grandma pulled out the family heirlooms
This outfit belonged to my great x3 grandmother
Sara Williams Waylett
She came across the plains


Leah Mariah was her daughter
Does Mariah ring a bell??
Leah Mariah had 4 daughters
When they were young all 4 girls died
within 2 weeks from diptheria.
Can you imagine losing 4 children in 2 weeks?
My great grandpa Reese Dubois Gorton was blessed
in this tiny dress.

This wool night gown brought me right
back to the Little House on the Prairie.
Take note of the old lantern.
I always knew I was born in the wrong era!
This was bought from J.C. Penny way back when
My great grandmother Sara Dorleska
brought this back from Isreal


I love all things old fashioned.
