Abigail (Williams) Emery and Wilson O Daniels - marriage license

My great great grandmother married her second husband, Wilson O Daniels on July 9, 1895 in Chicago, Illinois.

It was from this marriage that my great grandfather, Fred,  took the last name "Daniels" rather than retain his birth name of Fred Emery, (though he did use 'Emery' as a middle name).   This is another reason why it can become difficult to track ancestors.

Wilson O. Daniels - death certificate

My great great grandmother's second husband, Wilson O. Daniels died on October 10, 1903 in Chicago, Illinois.    Here is his death certificate from Cook County, Illinois.

Abigail and Wilson had only been married for 8 years when he passed away at the age of 51.    

















I have not been able to locate the marriage certificate for Abigail's third marriage to Louis Clifford Kiefer, but it would have been between October 11, 1903 and April 30, 1904, based upon the 1910 US Census which indicated they had been married for 6 years.
