  The Galway Shawl

• Suck Diesel said:

  "She wore no jewels, nor costly diamonds,
  No paint nor powder, no none at all,
  But she wore a bonnet with ribbons on it,
  And around her shoulders was the Galway shawl.”

  It looks as though the correct spelling for her husband's name is Courtlandt Dixon Barnes. See www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GRid=44269800 Her name was Katharine and she was the daughter of en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_T._Barney Her own FindaGrave page confirms her fondness for tall hats.

  NYT of Oct 21, 1917 query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=9B00E3DB133BEE3AB... has her speaking on behalf of the Women's Liberty Loan Committee at a suffrage meeting at Carnegie Hall. A picture published in the same issue shows Mrs. Courtlandt Dixon Barnes and Mrs. James F. Curtis (see nearby photo). query.nytimes.com/mem/archive-free/pdf?res=9C04EEDB133BEE...

  The date of her garment has to be earlier, probably 1870-1889.
