Emma's mother was Katherine Jane Powers nee Moffet. Her father was Charles Powers. I know her mother came to Australia also as I have found evidence that she died here. l don't know if it was at the same time.

Emma married Joseph Graham Williams in 1889 and died in 1956 at age 86.

Her death cert reg no in Australia is 12713.

    Thank you for your very prompt assistance Betty.

    This looks wonderful but there is one thing that has me confused. Your information states Emma is English and they leave from Liverpool whereas her death certificate indicates she was born in Boston, Masachusetts.

    I'm very new at this, what do i do? Hold onto all info until something ?more comes along? Can I ask, is this type of information available on wikitree or only on the pay sites such as ancestry?

    Many thanks once again. happy hunting!
