In fact, she was the oldest (b. Mar 30, 1849). Judson, the second child, may have died before 1853; he doesn't appear in a census list. Joel Walden (my ancestor) was bor Jan 31, 1853; then followed Harriet ("Hal"), b. 1856, Mary Gilman, b. 1860, and Elizabeth Warpenbee (b. 1862). Emma's listed in the 1870 census as aged 20. According to another web source, she married Edgar Alson Sidman.
