| Notes |
- Alonzo left home at the age of 12 due to the ill treatment of his father. He and Margaret Jane Coble were married in 1894. When he came to Ellensburg it was called "Robbers Roost." They had three sons; Ray Carl, Earl Bascom, and Asa Joel (Doc). Daniel and Sarah Coble were Margaret's (Maggie's ) father and mother. Daniel came to Washington on the way to Ballard, Wash. going through Kittitas Valley. Liking it better than Ballard, he came back to "Robbers Roost." He built the Coble Rooming House. It was eventually passed down to a daughter, Maude Coble Mitchell Hall. She ran the hotel until her death. Later the post office acquired it. That parking lot (Post Office) is where it stood. The Sackett brothers, with their father Alonzo, owned and operated the Sackett Hall on the Thorp highway, where they played for dances until the mid 20 s. Later they played for dances elsewhere, Doc's wife Patty, played for dances with them. Doc and Patty were known for their music in the 30's.. Alonzo and Margaret bought a farm in the Manastash Canyon. When they moved to town they bought the Union Hotel on West 3rd street. Doc acquired the hotel after his mother's death and ran it until his death. It is now part of Twin City Foods property. Ray did a little bit of everything. For a number of years he ran the Idle Hour tavern. He ran the Eclipse Hotel during WW II. Ray farmed with Doc in the Prosser Wash area then he moved to Corvallis, Ore. where he was School custodian and retired in 1964. A year later he died of a stroke.
