Meta Mae (Hill) Brown’s Table

This is Terry’s grandmother’s table.  It came with them from Fort Scott, Kansas, to the farm we now live on.  (We bought the farm from the estate). 

I fell in love with the lovely little table the very first time I saw it, but I had to wait for 35 years to buy it from Aunt Benita’s estate.

Now it lives in our house under the photo I inherited, from my mother, of my Great Grandmother, Grace Elizabeth (Hubbard) Wootton and my grandmother, Ruth Love (Wootton) Thomas.

The table is a neat little flip-over, with a snap to hold it open on one side.  I just love it!

I also find that I am attracted to the Victorian Era, so I thought the two would go well together.
