Mary Elizabeth Carver (1842-1885) married Hezekiah M. Bush (1847-1918) on 11 Sep 1869 in Barren County, Kentucky. They had daughters Elverta, Eldorado and Alice; and a son, George W. I feel, because of the similarity of names across generations that this is your family, although different in its composition. Elverta Bush was born in 1880 and died 1923. Any nice, but old photos would probably have been taken after 1870. Or, if taken earlier, they would have to have been printed (after about 1870) on paper, from positive glass plates or metal as in tintypes or daguerrotypes.
In 1870, Mary and Hezekiah, newly-married, were living in Tracy, Barren, Kentucky. Two residences away were John P. and Mary F. Carver. They were very young (ages 40 and 42) to be Mary’s parents, but could be related to her.

I believe the older Hezekiah Bush, who was single in all of the census records, is an uncle of the younger, and a brother of Peter Bush.

Perhaps the best place to discover Cricket and Sugar (undoubtedly nicknames) would be to look at FindaGrave.com and look at all of the Bridges, Carver and Bush information. Many family relationships are given at that site. Compare the photo with the birthdates.
