My mother and grandmother were founders of a local button club and since. Though there may not have been a lot of money to purchase luxuries' or non essential items sometimes the family was given small things for either payment or in appreciation. Hiriam Carey was the Dublin carriage driver for Mark Twain and my Grandmother was a seamstress who also made costumes for the likes of Amelia Earhart and Joseph Linden Smith during their stays in Dublin. Farm income was supplemented by various means. There were several generations living on the farms at the same time. My consignor explains To the best of my knowledge my family were primarily farmers in Dublin.
