Emily was born Halifax County, Nova Scotia, but raised in Massachusetts. The 1900 census, in Fitchburg, lists her as being born in Massachusetts.

She reports her immigration as being 1903.

The 1920 census lists the 33-year-old Emily as living with her parents in Fitchburg and sewing in a woolen mill.

The 1927 city directory for Fitchburg notes that Emily O. had moved from Fitchburg to Clinton.
