Her eldest daughter married in America, and was well known as a modeller in wax in New York.  Her younger daughter married the artist Hoppner, a rival in portraiture of Stuart and Lawrence, while her son Joseph was a portrait painter.  His likeness of Washington was much admired.

Richard Ladegast, in January, 1902, wrote a sketch of Miss Yandell’s life and works for the Outlook, in which he says that Miss Yandell was the first woman to become a member of the National Sculpture Society.  I quote from his article as follows:  “The most imposing product of Miss Yandell’s genius was the heroic figure of Athena, twenty-five feet in height, which stood in front of the reproduction of the Parthenon at the Nashville Exposition.  This is the largest figure ever designed by a woman.

“The most artistic was probably the little silver tankard which she did for the Tiffany Company, a bit of modelling which involves the figures of a fisher-boy and a mermaid.  The figure of Athena is large and correct; those of the fisher-boy and mermaid poetic and impassioned....  The boy kisses the maid when the lid is lifted.  He is always looking over the edge, as if yearning for the fate that each new drinker who lifts the lid forces upon him.”

Of the Carrie Brown Memorial Fountain he says:  “The design of the fountain represents the struggle of life symbolized by a group of figures which is intended to portray, according to Miss Yandell, not the struggle for bare existence, but ’the attempt of the immortal soul within us to free itself from the handicaps and entanglements of its earthly environments.  It is the development of character, the triumph of intellectuality and spirituality I have striven to express.’  Life is symbolized by the figure
