The photograph shows my Grandmother, Lockie Buskell Rhodes, in the center with my father, John Elston, standing on the left and her younger son William on the right.  The picture was taken in 1906 in New York City where they had relocated a few years earlier from Kentucky.    My Grandmother’s elaborate fur muff (five animals) must have been the ultimate fashion statement at that point in history!
