Donna, Welcome to the best genealogical website on rootsweb! (my opinion!) I've been with the site for over two years. (24 years of working my my Hart family history) I have searched the index of names in my great grandfather's diary for the years 1863-1878 and of all the names you are searching for I found only a Emily Ford. If this is one of your ancestors, email me and I will send you the exact citation. Again, welcome to our site.
