I got this girl from my mother in law. I have two alike and the rest Easter Eggers. She lays white eggs and I can’t figure out what breed she is! Any ideas? (The yellow one)

If your mother in law got them as chicks from a hatchery or bought them from store, that one is probably a Buff Minorca.

Example of a hatchery website with photos of Buff Minorca chickens:

But if your mother in law hatched eggs from her flock to produce these chickens, or got them from someone who hatched eggs from their flock, I would guess that one is a mix of some sort, and I don't have any good way to guess what breeds might have gone into the mix.
 
I think you might be right! Everything I read about them, even temperament matches up. Funny to think Ace hardware had a rare breed! Lol
Sometimes a store like that will get a "rare breed assortment," and then you can find just about anything. That is what I would guess happened.
