“The Graveyard Quilt”

Ashley Kath-Bilsky — Sun, 05 Sep 2010 22:16:52 +0000

There are many ways to pass family history down from generation to generation. For some, it is the old Family Bible. For others, it could be an oral history from a grandmother to her grandchild, or boxes of mementos and old photographs tucked away in an attic. Well, I just read a fascinating article in my monthly DAR magazine about “The Graveyard Quilt”. No, this isn’t a festive Halloween quilt to bring out each October. In 1836, a woman named Elizabeth Roseberry Mitchell began stitching a quilt in memory of her two-year old son, John, who had just died. In 1843, she added another son who had died at the age of 19. What’s so unusual about her quilt is that it features a graveyard in the center; on the top is where the graveyard is located in Monroe County, Ohio. At first, the macabre, almost Tim Burton look to it, made me sad. I had never seen such a depressing looking quilt. I wanted to learn why this woman chose such a depressing way to remember her family.

Apparently, when the family moved to Ohio, she wanted to make sure that no one forgot where these boys were buried. So, from a mourning perspective, Elizabeth used a talent she possessed to not only remember her deceased children but document family history for future descendants. It became more than just a quilt, but a genealogical and historical artifact.

As the family grew, Elizabeth felt the quilt had ‘design flaws’. She started another quilt, using the original quilt top as a practice piece. This practice quilt top now resides in the Highlands Museum and Discovery Center in Ashland, Kentucky. The second, finished quilt (pictured below) is part of the Kentucky Historical Society’s Thomas D. Clark History Center in Frankfort, Kentucky. To quote the article, “Together they are nationally known to be the only existing graveyard quilt top and quilt.”

I appreciate the love and sentimentality Elizabeth crafted into her quilt, although I must amit the method of keeping up the quilt bothers me. You see, when a child was born into the family (a joyous occasion usually filled with happiness and hope for their future), a black, eight-sided coffin was immediately added to this quilt around the outer edge. When death occurred, these coffins would be removed from that edge and reapplied into the graveyard area, located in the center. The death date would also be embroidered. I can see the practicality in having a set procedure for the family quit, but it is rather gruesome…at least to me.

On the subject of quilts, I LOVE quilts, and even took a quilting class years ago. I love the design, various materials and colors incorporated, as well as the definite talent and patience quilters have. Unfortunately, I lack patience. When I start something, I want to zip through it or I get bored. So, not a quilter do I make! However, my grandmother and great-grandmother made quilts all the time. I recently found a letter from my great-grandmother to my grandmother written in pencil during the Great Depression where she mentioned how hard it was to come by cotton and material for her quilting projects. So, she was going to make a wool quilt for one of her sons. I also have some quilt tops that were projects my grandmother worked on with her mother and her sisters. I remember my mother pointing out to me material that had once been used in childhood outfits of hers or how ‘that fabric came from the kitchen window curtains”. She could even identify what stitching belonged to her grandmother, her mother and each aunt. Like the brush stroke of a great artist, she knew each person’s style. The thing is, I knew by the way my mom talked about these quilts that this was more than a blanket, or bits of old fabric fashioned into a design. A family activity between a mother and her grown daughters had become part of that family’s history…and the beginning of my interest in preserving family history.

For over twenty years now, I have been researching family history, thrilled when I come upon an old photo, a piece of documentation about an ancestor, or a hand-written letter from my great-grandmother that gives so much insight into ‘who’ she was as a person. For anyone doing genealogical research, you run into so many road blocks that it can be discouraging. It saddens me to think of the artifacts and records destroyed over time, sometimes deliberately. Let’s just say, don’t bring up the name General Sherman in my presence!

So, searching for any article of family history becomes a personal quest. Finding what I like to call a “puzzle piece” is more than just a reward for the hard work that often took years to find. That piece becomes almost sacred because it helps to complete the family picture, and even moreso when it is something that was held or crafted by an ancestor.

Apart from the artwork and design of quilts, there is often a family legacy in the finished project. For me, it is the visual I still get of my grandmother, her sisters, and my great-grandmother all sitting around together and sewing a quilt while their children play outdoors. I picture them laughing and talking about life and their families. It is MY connection to that moment in time and I feel even more a part of them. So, when I read about The Graveyard Quilt, although my initial reaction was the sadness involved by picturing this woman sitting down and adding cloth coffins, I also admire her passion to preserve the history of her family. Granted, the procedure she followed would have been too emotional and fatalistic for me. There is no way that when a child was born in my family, I would have felt right about making a cloth coffin for them to put on the family quilt. BUT, for Elizabeth Roseberry Mitchell, her initial process of mourning became a passionate desire to maintain family history and remembrance of all who passed on in her family…and it was done perhaps the only way she knew how — through quilting. The end result, family history was preserved.

After 174 years, though quilters today may be impressed by Elizabeth’s ”traditional layout of a center medallion surrounded by blocks of alternating 8-pointed stars and black printed fabric”, for anyone who has spent hours and years searching for one clue about their ancestors, “The Graveyard Quilt” (macabre as it may seem) is a tangible artifact and sacred history for any descendants of Elizabeth Roseberry Mitchell — as well as an example of an unusual and innovative way to document a family tree.

NOTE: The above represents personal opinions of Ashley Kath-Bilsky based on an article entitled, “The Graveyard Quilt” by Gaylord Cooper, featured in American Spirit Magazine, Daughters of the American Revolution, September/October 2010

“Still round the corner there may wait, A new road or a secret gate, And though I oft have passed them by, A day will come at last when I, Shall take the hidden paths that run, West of the Moon, East of the Sun.” ~ J.R.R.

"All who wander are not lost." ~ J.R.R. Tolkien

On this day (Sep 2) 1973, J.R.R. TOLKIEN, the man considered by literary circles to be the ‘Father of Modern or High Fantasy Literature’, died at the age of 81. Born in South Africa on 03 Jan 1892, John Ronald Reuel Tolkien was raised in England and graduated from Exeter College at Oxford in 1915. After serving as a Second Lieutenant in the Lancashire Fusiliers during World War I, his first job as a civilian was working on the history and etymology of words of Germanic origin for the Oxford English Dictionary.

In 1920, he became the youngest professor at the University of Leeds, where he produced a Middle English Vocabulary. In addition, while working with E. V. Gordon, he created a definitive translation of Sir Gawain and the Green Knight (which became an academic standard for many years).

In 1925, Tolkien returned to Oxford as Rawlinson and Bosworth Professor of Anglo-Saxon, a position he held from 1925-1945. During this time, while grading exams, a distracted Tolkien wrote something across the top of a paper. The single line, “In a hole in the ground there lived a hobbit” not only inspired but would eventually become “The Hobbit”, a novel published in 1937.

In 1945, Tolkien was appointed Merton Professor of English Language and Literature at Oxford University. Between 1954 and 1955, he wrote a sequel to The Hobbit entitled, The Lord of the Rings. Also set in the fictional Middle Earth, the trilogy followed the adventures of a noble hobbit named Frodo Baggins who, joined by companions, a wizard, and various races living in Middle Earth, embarked on a quest to destroy a powerful and evil ring which could destroy everyone and everything.

“The Lord of the Rings,” Tolkien admitted, began as an exercise in “linguistic esthetics” as well as an illustration of his theory on fairy tales. Then the story itself captured him.

The Lord of the Rings became a best-selling classic and has been adapted for radio, television and film, as well as video games and music. In December 2001, director Peter Jackson brought the trilogy to the big screen, subsequently earning a total of 30 Oscar nominations for all three films, and winning 17 Academy Awards including the Best Picture award for the final installment, Return of the King.

Married to Edith May Bratt on 22 Mar 1916, Tolkien and his wife would have four children. A devoted husband and father, he was also a close friend to C.S. Lewis, whom he first met at Oxford. In May 1927, Tolkien enrolled Lewis in a club called ‘Coalbiters’, which read Icelandic sagas in the original Old Norse.

In his later years, the increasing fame from his work made the quiet, academic Tolkien uncomfortable. Repeatedly approached and contacted, he was forced to remove his name from the public directory and moved with his wife to Bournemouth. A devout Roman Catholic with Conservative political views, he disliked his work being referred to as a cult phenomenon or any inference that he was a ‘cult figure’ himself.

On 01 Jan 1972, Tolkien was appointed a Commander of the Order of the British Empire in the New Year’s Honour’s List by Queen Elizabeth II. On 28 Mar 1972, he received the insignia of the Order at Buckingham Palace.

An obituary, published in The New York Times on 03 September 1972, referred to Tolkien as the “Creator of a World”, stating, “John Ronald Reuel Tolkien cast a spell over tens of thousands of Americans in the nineteen-sixties with his 500,000-word trilogy, “The Lord of the Rings,” in essence a fantasy of the war between ultimate good and ultimate evil.”

Perhaps the best epitaph for this man is: “ A linguist, scholar, and author of “The Lord of the Rings, J.R.R. Tolkien ws a gentle, blue-eyed, donnish-appearing man who favored tweeds, smoked a pipe and liked to take walks and ride an old bicycle.”

For me, he was an endearing storyteller whose likeness and personality I always see in one of his characters. A kind and gentle wizard known by different names to different people. Stormcrow. Mithrandir. Gandalf. Or, Tolkien. They are one and the same to me…and perhaps other fans as well.

18th Century Child Labor in England and The Mills and Factory Act of 1833

Ashley Kath-Bilsky — Sun, 29 Aug 2010 18:01:12 +0000

On this day (Aug 29) 1833, the Mills and Factory Act was passed in England, establishing measures for improving the “Health and Morals” of child laborers. The Act was the first effective legislation empowering national inspectors with unlimited and unannounced entry into factories. Among the important changes made we…re: No one under the age of 9 years old could be employed. Children ages 9-12 could work no more than a 48-hour week. Teenagers could work 68-hour weeks. Provisions were also made for education and health, largely the result of testimony given by young workers before a Parliamentary committee investigating violations of earlier Acts.

Although the concept of child labor and regulations like these are offensive to people today, one must remember that in 1833, child labor was extensive. For years, orphans had been placed in workhouses rather than forced to live on the streets. Children from poor families were often sent to workhouses as well. Their plight was often featured in literary works by Charles Dickens. William Blake’s poem, “The Chimney Sweeper” (1789) told the story of a small child whose father sold him to a workhouse after the death of his mother, and who was then forced to train as a chimneysweep. Sadly, children aged 4-5 were often sold to clean chimneys due to their small size.

Consequently, the Mills and Factory Act was the beginning of strict regulations that brought about changes both socially-conscious authors would have not only welcomed, but supported.

“No one is useless in this world who lightens the burdens of another.” ~ Charles Dickens

“Where is Scudder’s book?” I cried to Sir Walter. “Quick, man, I remember something in it.” He unlocked the door of a bureau and gave it to me. I found the place. “Thirty-nine steps,” I read, and again, “Thirty-nine steps — I counted them — High tide, 10.17 p.m.” The Admiralty man was looking at me as if he thought I had gone mad. “Don’t you see it’s a clue,” I shouted….” ~ John Buchan (The Thirty-Nine Steps)

Ashley Kath-Bilsky — Thu, 26 Aug 2010 18:44:36 +0000

On this day (Aug 26) 1875, lawyer-politician-writer JOHN BUCHAN was born in Perth, Scotland. After a brief career in law, Buchan began writing fiction while also pursuing a political and diplomatic career. Although he wrote many genres, Buchan is best known for his spy adventure novels, including the first “Richard Hannay” book entiitled, THE THIRTY-NINE STEPS, published in 1915. He continued to write Hannay novels in his spare time, working full-time in the British Army ‘Intelligence Corps’. In fact, Buchan is credited with starting the kind of espionage thrillers (which he called “shockers”) that would eventually lead to such characters as James Bond.

Although not as sexy as a James Bond novel, THE THIRTY-NINE STEPS featured “a galloping plot, a supervillain of malignant evil, flurries of deceptioin and deduction, and a pipe-smoking Richard Hannay doing his best for Club and Empire, though bottled as a pickled herring from the start and doomed with just twelve hours to go.”

John Buchan died in 1940 at 64, by this time the titled Lord Tweedsmuir of Elsfield and Governor-General of Canada. His son, William, was also an author, and his grandson, James Buchan, recently published his sixth book, the critically acclaimed novel entitled, “The Persian Bride”.

“I’m just going to write because I cannot help it. ” ~ Charlotte Bronte

Ashley Kath-Bilsky — Tue, 24 Aug 2010 16:22:50 +0000

On this day (Aug 24) 1847, Charlotte Bronte (using the pseudonym of Currer Bell) sent her manuscript of JANE EYRE to her eventual publisher, Smith, Elder & Co., in London. The manuscript had been rejected five (5) times already. Although Bronte might have been discouraged, she was not ready to accept Wordsworth and poet laureate Robert Southey’s advice that, “novel writing wasn’t the proper pasttime of a lady”. The sixth time proved a charm. Smith, Elder & Co., published the novel and it was an immediate and somewhat controversial hit.

30 April 2009

I am very pleased to announce Ashkath Productions, Ltd., a privately held company focused on developing and producing independent projects for film and televsion. This venture will enable me to continue writing as a novelist of historical fiction, as well as pursue my interest in film as a screenwriter and producer. Just one of the exciting projects now in development is a sci-fi adventure fantasy based on a trilogy I penned several years ago that I feel would be better served as a feature film. Although the majority of our projects will be written by myself, Ashkath Productions also looks forward to working with other talented writers, as well as collaborating with other film production companies in an effort to bring original and exciting new works to the screen.

1001 BEST ROMANCE NOVELS VOTED BY READERS OF ROMANTIC TIMES!

Ashley Kath-Bilsky — Thu, 18 Dec 2008 01:30:19 +0000

Hello Everybody,

I am thrilled to share some exciting news with you. I just learned that readers of Romantic Times Booksellers were asked to nominate books they considered the 1001 Best Romance Novels written … and my book, The Sense of Honor, is among those listed!

This is the second list in two days that I have learned about where The Sense of Honor was deemed worthy of such an honor. The other list was compiled and published on a personal blog citing the 500 Best Romance Novels of all time.

My heartfelt appreciation goes to readers of romance who either voted or compiled these lists. The time and effort it must have taken not only illustrates a undying love of literature, but how important (AND memorable) romance novels are to readers. Quite often, the general public fails to recognize that books such as Wuthering Heights, Pride & Prejudice, Jane Eyre, Forever Amber, and Gone With The Wind, are not just classic great works of literature but also romance novels.

As you will see from the list, there have been many talented novelists of this genre, past and present, and I am truly humbled and honored that readers — privately and collectively — have deemed my very first novel, The Sense of Honor, worthy to be included with these other great books.

This is the core reason why I wanted to write — not for fame or fortune, but to tell a story that is compelling as well as emotionally rewarding to the reader. To know that readers felt this connection to my work and also considered it so memorable is the greatest compliment. Thank you all.

AKB

TEN BOOKS TO READ BEFORE YOU DIE….

Ashley Kath-Bilsky — Thu, 03 Jul 2008 23:33:54 +0000

Hmm. Remember, I said I would try and post when I felt I had something interesting to say or report?? Well, I logged on AOL today and they had this list of Ten Books To Read Before You Die. What an attention grabbing title for a list! Um…just in case you’re wondering….my book was not listed (I know — who made up this list, right???? lol). However, I am pleased to say there is one classic historical romance novel listed and it is, in actual fact, NUMBER ONE!

I have to say that I have read ALL of the books on this list and agree they are well worth being listed as wonderful works of fiction. Are they the TEN BOOKS I would recommend to read before you die? Well, I don’t think so. This list represents literary samples from various genres only of the 20th and 21st century. Understandably, to comprise a list of books to read before you die is a pretty daunting task, especially when various genres are all grouped together. We are talking about a LOT of books that have been written over centuries, great classics penned by wonderful authors. I would have to probably compile separate lists according to genres. So, I will have to think about it and get back to you. Maybe I’ll start with TEN ROMANCE NOVELS TO READ BEFORE YOU DIE and ask for your suggestions as well? But just in case you haven’t seen AOL’s list, here it is:

#1 GONE WITH THE WIND (Margaret Mitchell)

Published in 1936, Gone With The Wind sold 50,000 copies on its first day, and two million after a year. Even though it is 1,037 pages long, readers all over the world snatched up the book. In 1937 it was awarded the Pulitzer Prize. Mitchell prided herself on the historical accuracy of her work. Gone With The Wind is a sweeping account of how the Civil War tore apart an entire way of life, and Scarlett O’Hara is one of the most enduring characters in American fiction.

#2 LORD OF THE RINGS (J.R.R. Tolkien)

Lord of the Rings is regarded by many to be the most important and influential work of fantasy of the 20th century. It generated the fantasy novel industry practically single-handedly, inspiring a multitude of novels concerning elves and dwarves on quests to conquer ultimate evil despite overwhelming odds. Although intended to be published as a single volume, its division into a trilogy created the iconic format for epic fantasy literature.

#3 HARRY POTTER (J. K. Rowling)

Follow Harry Potter from his first days at Hogwarts School for Witchcraft and Wizardry, through his many adventures with Hermione and Ron, to his confrontations with rival Draco Malfoy and the dreaded Professor Snape. From a dangerous descent into the Chamber of Secrets to the Triwizard Tournament to the return of He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named, each adventure is more riveting and exhilarating than its predecessor.

#4 THE STAND (Stephen King)

In 1978, Stephen King published The Stand, the novel that is now considered to be one of his finest works. It depicts his apocalyptic vision of a world blasted by plague and embroiled in an elemental struggle between good and evil. It is a gripping work with the scope and moral complexity of a true epic. Those reading The Stand for the first time will discover a triumphant and eerily plausible work of the imagination that takes on the issues that will determine our survival.

#5 THE DA VINCI CODE (Dan Brown)

The elderly curator of the Louvre has been murdered. Near the body, police have found a baffling cipher. While working to solve the enigmatic riddle, Robert Langdon is stunned to discover it leads to a trail of clues hidden in the works of Da Vinci — clues visible for all to see — yet ingeniously disguised by the painter. The Da Vinci Code heralds the arrival of a new breed of lightning-paced, intelligent thriller…utterly unpredictable right up to its stunning conclusion.

#6 TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD (Harper Lee)

To Kill a Mockingbird is about the crisis of human behavior and conscience arising from the racism and prejudice that exist in the small Southern town during the Depression. Scout Finch tells the story of her father’s defense of Tom Robinson, a young black man who is being tried for the rape of a white woman. Harper Lee’s only novel, awarded the Pulitzer Prize in 1961, is a much-beloved tale of growing up, as well as an exploration of heroism confronted with bigotry

#7 ANGELS AND DEMONS (Dan Brown)

When a canister of anti-matter is stolen from a Swiss research facility, Robert Langdon is called in to investigate. A Harvard professor, Langdon is an expert on the ancient, quasi-scientific, and widely feared organization know as the Illuminati, who may or may not be wrapped up in the mystery. Angels and Demons preceeds The Da Vinci Code.

#8 ATLAS SHRUGGED (Ayn Rand)

Rand’s 1200-page novel Atlas Shrugged is a hymn of praise to the concept of rugged individualism, personified in John Galt. This polemic for Rand’s philosophy of “rational self-interest” has been a steady seller since it was published in 1957.

#9 THE CATCHER IN THE RYE by: J.D. Salinger

J. D. Salinger’s famous and enduring chronicle of Holden Caulfield’s journey from innocence to experience is the quintessential coming-of-age novel. Salinger’s 1951 novel Catcher in the Rye was a bestseller and became an immediate cult favorite, but it has also, over the years, been subject to criticism and even censorship because of its liberal use of profanity, its frank conversations about sex, and its generally irreverent view of the adult world.

#10 THE HITCHHIKER’S GUIDE TO THE GALAXY (Douglas Allan)

Seconds before the Earth is demolished for a galactic freeway, Arthur Dent is saved by Ford Prefect, a researcher for the revised Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy. Together, they stick out their thumbs to the stars and begin a wild journey through time and space. Douglas Adams’ hilarious classic The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy is the quintessential science fiction book of our time.

Remember, just because a book is NOT on this list, only means that ‘someone’ might have missed a sparkling jewel in the vast literary treasure chest of timeless books – like, say, maybe…. MINE!

Happy Reading!

Welcome to my World of Timeless Romance!

Ashley Kath-Bilsky — Mon, 30 Jun 2008 02:24:36 +0000

Hello Bloggers,

I am going to start by saying that I am not a good blogger, but will try to post as often as I can — provided I have something interesting to say (or that I think you might find interesting).

To start off, I am a novelist of historical romance, with either gothic/suspense and/or paranormal influences. Growing up, I loved the writings of Daphne du Maurier and Victoria Holt, and I don’t think I would be a writer today if not for them. My first novel, The Sense of Honor is now available from Highland Press. Rather than tell you myself a little bit about the book, please let me quote a reviewer from Coffee Time Romance:

“The Sense of Honor is riddled with secrets, clues and finally, love. The author is a master with words and at creating just the right scenes while leading the reader through a maze of secrets, lies, and clues until the reader reaches the long awaited conclusion. Ms. Bilsky has outdone herself with this story and I look forward to reading more books by this author when they are available.”

Voted the “Best Single Title Romance Book in Print for 2007 by readers on the Cata Romance Network, SingleTitles.com, The Sense of Honor has also received an Award of Merit from the Virginia Romance Writers 2008 Holt Medallion Contest, and is a finalist for the prestigious 2008 Daphne du Maurier Award for Exellence in Mystery and Romantic Suspense – Published Historical.

If you’d like to see the video promo of the book, here it is:

So, that’s it for my first blog post. If you’ve not read my first novel, I hope you will. I am now working on my second book, which I am very excited about. If you’d like to learn more about me and my writing, please visit my website at: http:///www.ashleykathbilsky.com.

Thanks for stopping by.
