I found a picture: Mary Nowlin in Jackson Wyoming


I'm slowly going through my mother's scrapbooks. Every once in a while I run into a real gem. This is my grandmother, Mary (McKean) Nowlin circa late 30s to early 40s at the house next to the Elk Refuge in Jackson Hole Wyoming. I believe one of the children is my Mother and another my Uncle Dan Nowlin. You can see the fence for the Elk Refuge in the background. This is the site of the Nowlin Creek Inn that my cousin Mark and his wife built many years back. My understanding is that the house in the picture has been moved to the back of the lot. I very much miss this area of Wyoming as it was before becoming 'discovered'.
