MARY WOODRUFF'S GEORGE WASHINGTON

Previous research that accompanied the lot indicates that the teacher of Miss Barton's school, Maria M. Barton (1805-1861), lived in Elizabeth Town throughout her life and is buried at the Burying Grounds of the First Presbyterian Church and St. Johns Church.
The research also found two young ladies of the appropriate age for the sampler named Mary Woodruff living in Elizabeth Town in 1835, so the exact identity of the maker is unknown.
