Hi joyce...
 The post card on the Elkland page shows on the left the western part of the Ryon House... It is now the P and J restaurant... Concealed to its east is the rest of the Ryon home which later became the town Honor roll, Wynkoops grocery, the Golden Thimble Craft store, and now some law offices.  Also WIC.  the Ryon home was the very FIRST to be built within what we know as the borough... the town was practically built around it...  Across the street we see what is now Rainbow rose and also the Hotel Signor.Michael Little
