Holy Trinity Forest Church, 1817 (General)
I have a tapestry worked by my grandmother 140 years ago (a living piece of history) most of which is easily decipherable, with the letters of the alphabet, numerals 1 to 9 and in verse "I am the rose of sharron and the life of the valley". In capitals and strong colours.
Ellen Hale aged 13 years.
Forest Church Jubilee Sat. July 8 1868.
At that time she was living at Lane End, West Dean, why, and how, she was able to execute this work at 13 years of age, and at that period of time is a mystery.
Does anyone have any information of the Forest Church Jubilee which this tapestry celebrates? please.
Thanks
