Dear Listers! I have tonite done some "brainstorming" on this problem, and I found this death record in Seattle, WA: ~~~~~~~~~~~ Name: Emma Davey [Emma Holte] Gender: Female Marital Status: Married Race: White Age: 56 Birth Date: 13 Oct 1874 Birth Place: Norway Death Date: 12 Mar 1931 Death Place: Seattle, King, Washington Burial Date: 14 Mar 1931 Burial Place: Stanwood, Wisconsin (should be Washington!?) Father: P Holte Mother: ~~~~~~~~~~~ And I find the marriage of Herbert E. DAVEY and Emma G. HILL in Seattle, WA July 15, 1918 Herbert Edwin Davey was born in England Feb. 27, 1881 and returned to England where he died in Hammersmith, London 4th quarter of 1972. Interesting is it to see that Emma was buried at STANWOOD, WA. Find-a-grave reveals that's also the burial site of her father Jacob Holte who died in 1899, 64 years old, as well as her brothers Peter and Gotfred Holte! Erick Hill doesn't appear to be there!! Another "intreaguing" question would be: WHERE was Emma Hill between 1890 and 1918?? Was she maybe married to someone else between Erick Hill and Herbert Davey?? Thanks again for any additional information anyone can provide on this family! Very sincerely yours, Lars E. Oyane ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ On May 17, 2015, at 7:57 AM, Lars E.
