Great San Francisco Trip 2013 Lewiston, ID Day 33

We survived the showers and headed for Moscow.  The home of the University of Idaho is also the County Seat for Latah County where three Olson brothers settled in the 1890's.  They were first cousins of Judy's Grandmother Alma  Olson Henrickson..   When Judy's Aunt Emma died, she had had an album of  pictures from Moscow without names.  The Emigration folk in Sweden helped Judy identify who the relatives were, but not who is pictured in these fine portraits.  We have spent the day in the Moscow library, the Latah County Historical Society, the Troy, ID library, and cemeteries in rural Deary and Moscow.  We have had a lot of gracious helpers.  Daniel at the LCHS was particular gracious and recommended that we have lunch at the Filling Station in Troy, which made a cheese less pizza for Bill - much to his pleasure.  There we ran into Dorothy Anderson who is the local historian.  Daniel had suggested we look her up.  Serendipity of the first order. We had coffee with her and enjoyed meeting her, but at 83 she is too young to have known the people in Alma's album.  Again taking advantage of the good help available at the Moscow library, we are posting this before we head back through the Palouse to spend another night in Hell.
