2 Ann Eames, 1791, Holliston, Massachusetts This charming miniature pictorial sampler was worked by Ann Eames of Holliston, Middlesex County, Massachusetts in 1791, when she was nine years old. Ann was born in 1782, the eighth child of Ezra and Sarah (Jones) Eames. They descended from Thomas Eames, who settled in that area in 1674 and stayed despite severe Indian trouble in 1676 (his wife and several children did not survive the attack and other of his children were taken captive). True miniature samplers are rare and this piece is quite accurate to scale. It is worked in silk on linen and is in excellent condition, conservation mounted into a modem frame. Sampler size: 5W'x5W' Price: $1,800. M. Finkel e:J Daughter. DDDDDDDD
