Zehring, April 14, 1877, and remained a faithful and loyal member all her life. She was also a member and regular attendant of the Sunday School.
On June 1, 1884 she was married to Noah A. Emig who survives her together with one son, two grandchildren, and five great-grandchildren.
The funeral services were held from her late home on Tuesday morning, December 17, 1940, with brief services at the house and more extended services at the Stone Church, where many friends and relatives had gathered to pay their last tribute of love and respect. The funeral text was Psa. 90:10; John 11:26.
