Notes for Emma Matilda Bergquist
Just months before his death, an 1895 census was taken that listed Carl (33), Emma (17) and Axel H. (38) living in the same house.1976 Apparently she married very young and was almost immediately widowed. I have her wedding listed as occurring in 1883 which would have made Emma only 5 years old when married. I kind of doubt that! Maybe she married in 1893 when she was 15. The moving date (from Chariton, IA to Rawlins County, KS) of 1887 also doesn’t fit with the marriage in Rawlins County, KS in 1883.1974 A Bergquist family is living very close to the Hoagland family in Laing in the 1895 census.1033

All sources of data are documented on the “Person Sheet” for each individual. My early data often came from less-than-reliable sources (e.g., “Sarah’s genealogy pages”). If the only sources for a person is something like that or worse there is no listed source for data, please take the information as only a suggestion and not a fact.
