Description
The sampler does not include a date. It does
have "Wrought by Deborah Peelle." Deborah Peele, born 1832, attended
New Garden Boarding School in 1855 and married in 1869. I have no
indication if this was done while she was a student at New Garden
Boarding School or at another point in her life prior to 1869.
Deborah Ann Peele (1832-1920), daughter of Elizabeth Hare and James
Peele of Rich Square, Northampton County, North Carolina, married
Joseph R. Parker in 1869. Gift to the college from Elizabeth Graham
Parker (Guilford Class of 1932), great-granddaughter of creator.
Transferred to the Friends Historical Collection,
