Three of the needlework samplers have the name Anne Frances Ennis: the oldest one being this colorful sampler with words to live by filling the body of the sampler dated April 1846, one is black with crowns, numbers, lettering and specialty stitches like running, buttonhole, etc. dated 1853 and marked class H (the top part was not charted), another is green with specialty stitches inscribed Anne F. Ennis 1851, and one is inscribed A. Kirkpatrick with the number 11. Assuming the word Ennis is the town where she lived, a records search for Anne Frances Kirkpatrick indicates a strong possibility of our Anne being born about 1833 in Drumclift, County Clare, Ireland and passing away at the age of 68 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania around February 12, 1901, having never married. We are left to wonder more about her life and how she used her lovely specimens.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cross Stitch Antiques","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58564366598304,"sku":null,"price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0607\/0609\/5264\/files\/unnamed_9b654f27-0c7d-45f9-ade5-99aa8a9e4a41.jpg?v=1785504714","url":"https:\/\/www.craftygrimalkin.com\/products\/preorder-anne-frances-kirkpatrick-black-crowns-cross-stitch-antiques-cross-stitch-pattern","provider":"The Crafty Grimalkin - A Cross Stitch Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
