LINCOLN CITY - Nearly 40 years ago, an 83-year-old retiree offered an old, handstitched quilt to a local museum accompanied by a couple of notes explaining its history. Today, the quilt tells the story of a woman born into slavery, a beloved and skilled quiltmaker whose time on this Earth might have vanished if not for the woman who treasured her memory.

The public can come and contemplate the mysteries around this ship, because like anything from the past, we have pieces of information. We don't have the whole story.
