Anyone know the name of this Iris

Marinette, WI(Zone 4b)

I got this Iris from my mom house after she passed away.
Does anyone know the name of it?

That looks like my Buffawn (Andrew 1940)

Here is a photo of mine. Compare it.

Here is another photo of it. Light situration is different so it changes the color somewhat. It is a buff color.

The beards are a different color on "Buffawn" so that's not it.

Could possibly be Easterbonnet

I have never known the name of this iris and always wanted to find out.
The iris came from my mom's place and she is not longer with us to ask her, and I'm not sure she would even know.
At times in the bright sun it almost looks like it's a carmel color from a distance.
But I know it's not Buffawn, as this one has no orange in it like the picture of Buffawn does.
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Marshall, TX

I have a similar iris that was given to me by a dear friend in NM and it sure looks like yours. Maybe the better trained eyes in the group can see differences, but color and beard seem the same. Here is mine. The person who gave it to me didn't know its name, either, but she has had it for years. Not much help but at least we know that it's older and in both WY and TX

Thanks karmafarms.
That's starting to look more like mine.
