ISO: Potato Salad like Mom's

Misc.

I'm looking for a Potato Salad recipe like my mom used to make. She died without ever showing me how she made it. The ingredients that I'm sure of, besides potatoes, include eggs, onions, celery and sweet pickle relish. She may have put in a little French's mustard and some sugar. It was never made with olives or radishes or green pepper, nor did it have a vinaigrette dressing. It was dressed with either mayonnaise or Miracle Whip. If I had a guideline to start with, I could probably come pretty close. She told me it was originally made by "Aunt Edna", who lived in New York City or New Jersey about 50 years ago.
