Whether Nathaniel Burgess was the father of both has long been a question I have been trying to answer. As you indicated in the 1900 census they were married only 5 years which could indicate Nathaniel is not the father. But in 1910 they say they were married 30 years which would mean they married they year Emma Marie was born. Emma Marie is my Grandmother.
