My son, Taylor Andersen Wickstrom recently gave the wedding ring of Clara Root Simons Johnson to his fiancé. The ring's history started me on this path. I have a treasure trove of family items, books, pictures, tin types etc. I even have an edition of "Godey's Lady's Book" embossed with the name, Caroline Delafield and on the inside cover the reads, in freehand, "Mrs. Edward Delafield". I have literally opened Pandora's box, only, its all good.
