Feather Crowns

I think that feather crowns are probably something that a lot of people have never seen, or
heard of. These have been around longer than I have, and I have been around 70 yrs +. These
crowns were in an old trunk that my dad inherited from his mother. The crowns were from
ancestors pillows, I was always told that when there was a crown in a pillow after someone
passed away that they had gone to heaven.


I can remember seeing them when I was real small, I always liked to look in the old trunk when
I was a kid. I don't know why because there was not that much in it for a kid to see, mostly old papers. Some of them are 150 years old or older. Any way here are some
pictures of the crowns, and a couple old hair pins that have always been with them.






Pictures are not too good, might be the photographer.
