The Ridlon family hardware store visits were, very much, like going back in time.

I LOVVVE this! I remember calling my grammie Hammond all the time when I was very llittle. I would pick up the receiver and the operator Izzy would already know who I was and would connect me. Also, if I were at Grammie's house, I would pick up the receiver and say, "5-2-8, please'. That connected me to my parents. Our number was 528. Later it was 8025. Later yet, when area codes came about, it was 814-274-8025. Fun fun fun!

Same group posted by Lanny E. Nunn on Coudersport site with names. No Izzy with this group but this was taken long before probably early 1900s.
May be an image of 5 people and text

I think, comparing the two photos, that the woman 3rd from back is Ava Grover. 2nd from right, Sadie Moran, and 4th from right, Katherine Grabe. I think. Irene and Ava seem to favor dark clothing.
