Family Heirlooms

I have been having the best time getting to know cousins Linda and Janice.  Linda sent me some pictures the other day of items in her china cabinet that belonged to our ancestors.  The first one is of a small teacup that was part of a set of dishes belonging to Grandma Gurley!  It is around 200 years old!  Her sweet grandmother wrote a note to go along with the cup that described who it belonged to.  I love that.  Here are a few of the pictures she sent me:

These next pictures are of a glass slipper that is very old, too, and looks to be used for advertising for S. D. Sollers Fine Shoes. We don't know exactly who it belonged to, but we think it was probably Great Aunt Margaret who was Grandma Vera's sister.  She never married and was the only one in the family who really had any money.  She also loved to have nice things to wear.  It would make sense that she was given this glass slipper as a preferred customer of S. D. Sollers Fine Shoes.  

I can hardly wait to see what else she has!  I love getting fun, new things from our wonderful relatives!  If anyone else has anything they would be willing to share with us/me, I would love it!
