"Mrs. Emily Chittenden Carter, possessed the true pioneer spirit. She was the last of nineteen children and a very industrious person. When her sons came west, each had 24 pairs of wool socks, knitted by his mother, to bring with him. During her last eight years she pieced over 100 quilts." -- DAR Magazine, Vol. 58
