Elephants are "Diamond", "Jenny", "Josky" and "Nellie".
Following the 1922 season both males were sold, "Louis" to Wm. P. Hall and "Little Diamond" to Honest Bill Newton.

Would the Josky that is pictured here be the same one that was on Jack Moore's Carson & Barnes in the 1960s?

Yes it is.
She was added to the H-W herd from the Hall Farm in 1915 following the Peru flood.
Before winding up with Jack Moore, she had trouped with H-W, JR and S-F with the Corp. and afterward with Barnes and RBBB.
Died in Hugo following the 1968 season.
