Given by the descendants of Hannah Downes and part of a collection of needlework executed by four generations of women. The family tree identifies Hannah Haines, youngest daughter of Hannah Downes, as the maker of this pocket between 1718-1720. Historical significance: An example of an early 18th century women's pocket, a separate garment worn tied around the waist under the petticoats. The small size of this pocket and the short length of its opening suggest that it was made for a young girl.
