From the Oct. 2021 Smithsonian magazine: In case you’re related to this family. A picture of The Paul Family Quilt (1830-35) is on display at the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston. Catherine Paul made it and embroidered it with images of the family. She and her husband William, their four sons, and his widowed mother moved from Greenwich Mass. in 1812 to what is now Solon, ME.
