I guess the family was in "reduced circumstances" as they say, but if they could afford to keep and maintain an island in the Hudson River their fortune wasn't entirely lost. Sheesh. Sadly my library doesn't have a copy of her gardening book, so I will read the one you found online. Thanks for doing the research!
