Bahamian Quilt

 The story of George and Olivia Adderley begins in the 1890's when they, along with other Bahamians, sailed from the Bahamas to the Keys. They lived in the upper Keys for several years and subsequently came to Key Vaca where they purchased 32 acres in the area now known as Crane Point. Their home, which George built himself, is made of Tabby, a concrete like material made of burned conch and other shells mixed with water and sand.
