Weiser, Idaho
This photo was in the pictures of my Great Great Grandmother, Martha Christiansen Coley. I don’t know why. She had brothers who worked in Washington State and perhaps they sent this as a post card if they traveled through Weiser, but there was not writing on the back or any indication it was mailed. The picture is of the train station in Weiser, Washington, Idaho.
Sagacity 
Is Martha related to Clarence or “uncle buddy” or betty Lou percell?
My mother is Patricia j percell “young”

I do not have any Percells in my records. Do you believe there is a connection because I do not have full records on Martha’s missing brothers, Henry Owen and Ole Loren Christiansen.

Martha Christiansen was born in Fredrikstad, Norway in 1879, immigrated to the US in 1889 directly to Cache Valley, Utah. She married Herbert Coley in 1896 and remained living in Cache Valley until she passed away in 1961. There is not any question regarding Martha’s family and her marriage, she just has some siblings who are unaccounted for when they were old enough and left Cache Valley. How are you related to Martha Christiansen Coley?
