My mother was born Martha Standley. She came from a big family. Her mother died giving birth to her 8 child. All the children in the family were sent to an orphanage in Carthage, Missouri. My mother was adopted. I have been trying to see if I could locate some of her family. Her father's name was Harry Standley. Didn't know her mothers name.
I would really like some help. Not much to go on. My mother died in 1979.
