Greer, Frances, d. 1978.
Sisters Frances and Mary Greer lived near Staunton, Virginia, where Anna Mary Robertson [Grandma] Moses and her husband settled in 1887. When the Moses family moved back to New York in 1905, Grandma Moses and daughters-in-law Mary and Dorothy corresponded with the Greers. Grandma Moses, a self-taught, "modern primitive" painter, began painting in the thirties after arthritis forced her to give up yarn needlework.
