I found this tag in the same area and noticed how at the bottom of the man the design comes to a V on the tag and the bottom of the women's dress on the button . I live in a small town that was started in 1880 and was / is a heavy Amish / Victorian era . I have found coins in the area back to 1872 .

Found her! Neat find :icon_thumright: This is from "The Big Book of Buttons" (Hughes/Lester) at p. 473.

Button is called "Mary Tudor".
