Alice Mabel Emery, second child of my great great grandparents, Abigail (Williams) and Fred J Emery was born in Washington, Iowa on November 27, 1889.
Alice's first marriage was to Fred Colby Holder Jr on August 10, 1907 in Chicago, Illinois. That marriage produced a daughter, Dorothy June Holder on June 18, 1908.
Sometime in 1909, Alice and Fred Holder divorced. Following her divorce from Fred Holder, Alice married Charles F Mitchell on September 14, 1918 in Chicago, Illinois.
Alice was married a third time to Durland Wadsworth Brown on September 9, 1920, also in Chicago. If there were any other marriages I have not been able to locate them, though Alice did use her first husband's last name at the time of her death.
Alice passed away on May 14, 1970 in Chicago, Cook county, Illinois and was cremated. The death certificate indicates the ashes were laid to rest at Graceland cemetery in Chicago.
Alice's only daughter, Dorothy June Holder married Alexander Tayler Turnbull in 1928 or 1929. Alexander was the first child born to Marcia Dorothea (Wood) and Alexander Tayler Turnbull Sr on June 4, 1903 in Chicago.
Dorothy passed away August 10, 1995 in Glenview, Cook county, Illinois. Alexander Turnbull Jr passed away in October 1975, also in Glenview, Illinois.

I just sent an email - I don't know if you still update this blog. I just came across this as I am a decendent of Conrad and Margareth Emery.
