Quilt names spark memories from Seeburn and Russell days
The writer recalls relatives and neighbors linked to Seeburn School now in Angusville, mentions Tom Mary McCallum and Jessie Turnbull, notes Olive Nield Hildred Martin and Doris M. Kirk as teachers and pals, and hints at Baskier and Madill families moving to the area from Waskada with cattle. The piece reflects nostalgia and unanswered questions about a local quilt story.
