My problem is that I haven't been able to find Emma's death or her grave. I just can't believe that her divorce was granted and she died right away. I have sent for divorce papers, have searched through all the cemeteries in the area, even contacted funeral homes trying to figure out what happened to Emma. Emma was born in 1854 so she could have lived many more years and could have been released and remarried. I am simply at a loss as to where to search next. I would appreciate any help.</div>
