    Biography
    • According to her cousins Clementine and Alice her name was Christine but she was called May. However, she also went by Emma according to the 1880 census and her first wedding announcement in 1895. In the 1900 census through the last record of her that I have, her 1908 wedding announcement she went by Christine or Christina. After her second marriage she moved to England where she and her husband raised a family. She may have gone my May after moving to England.
      Her cousins Julia and Alice and Alice's daughter Angela went to visit her in England in 1926.
