Hank - Do you know who Edith was?

According to the museum, hers was a well-known family in Weiser, but have apparently all moved away. They also found a letter to her from Walter not long long before he died in 1946 responding to a letter from her:

(letter from Walter Johnson to Edith Sater Allen)
Germantown, Md.
Jan. 15,1946
Dear Edith:
Was sure good to hear from you. I have wondered lots and
lots of times where and how you were.
I did hear that you lost your husband. Yes, I live here on a
farm about twenty-five miles from D.C.
I guess I am not too much different than when you saw me
last, only of course some older.
I lost my wife sixteen years ago. She left me five children to
raise, and I managed to bring them up such as they are. All
went to college only two finished.
My baby is in college now she is nineteen. All married and
have children except her.
I am a grandfather six times and like it.
Please write and tell me all about yourself.
How many children did you have, and how long have you
been in Tacoma? You know I went to Weiser from Tacoma. I
would give a lot to sit down and talk old times with you.
I hope you are real well and will write me all about yourself.
As ever
Walter
