Auchampaugh: World War II quilt has many Owasco connections

Laurel Auchampaugh Special to The Citizen The Owasco Reformed Church was recently given a treasure. Dr. Jim Richardson and his daughter Heather Charron traveled from Pittsburgh to Owasco to deliver his wife’s family heirloom: a pieced and appliquéd Dresden plate quilt. Judy (Herrick) Richardson, Jim’s wife, inherited the quilt from her mother, Jessie (Kenneth) Herrick. Grandchildren Heather and Jeff recall sleeping under the quilt when visiting their grandparents. The quilt’s family history was shared with the pastor and a small group from the church. Jim reports that it was a fundraiser quilt for the World War II Red Cross war bond effort, and is commonly described as a signature quilt. Jessie won this quilt in a raffle. Its origins and artists are unknown, yet it was revealed to feature many Owasco area names, and lists two servicemen’s name and rank.
