This photo is from the Ethel Wight Studio, Portland, Maine.
The envelope these negatives were in say, “Miss Sally Foley, 44 Brackett St., Portland #784.”
Why I believe this to be the individual.
• The 1936 Portland City Directory lists Sally W. Foley as a clerk at 561 Congress residing at 44 Brackett. Also residing at 44 Bracket is Morgan Foley and Coleman J. Foley, a janitor at 52 Center. Further searching for Sally did not yield any results.
• The 1930 US Census reported Coleman, Morgan, and Sarah, as children of Martin and Julia Foley. Sarah was 18-years-old, born in Maine, while her parents were born in Ireland. Because Sally is often a nickname for Sarah, I’m sure this is a photo of Sarah when she was about 24 years old.
• Ancestry Trees indicate a Sarah Foley, born 8 Feb 1912, daughter of Martin J. and Julia Foley.
