We have three Emery lines to research. Our actual blood line is not shown here - you can click on Soden and see the little bit of information about our own Sophia EMERY Soden.


The other two lines are from Thomas A. EMERY, husband of Linda D. BAUER. Tom's great grandfather was supposedly 80 years old when his last two children were born - his second wife had twin sons. The father of 23 children, Wilford was married twice. Tom's mother also descends from an EMERY line which might eventually be proven to be EMMERICH from Germany.
