Biography
Emily was born about 1813. She passed away about 1870. Most of the family trees list her maiden name as Anthony, but no documentation is sited. Verification is definitely needed. It's also not known where the name Emily was discovered. All the census records list her as Ruth.
Could she be the sister of Finis Anthony? Finis was born in about 1808 in Illinois and Emily Ruth was born about 1813 in Missouri or Illinois.
