Looking for information on Emma (Grobe) Jewison. She died sometime around 1956. She was married to Roy Jewison and I believe there were three sons born to this marriage including my grandfather, Dennis Jewison. Any help would be appreciated.

How old was she when she died? The "Emma" I am familiar with was born in 1865 in Peoria, Illinois.

I don't know how old she was when she died. I just have her name and that she was living in MN when she died.

The Emma Grob that I am familiar with was born in Peoria, Illinois, like I said, in 1865. When she was in her early twenties, she took a train trip from Peoria to Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and back. She had to change trains in Chicago. She made it from Peoria to Milwaukee where she visited some Baumann relatives. To come home, they saw her off at the train station in Milwaukee, but when her family in Peoria came to the train station to meet her, she never showed up and was never heard from again. Does this sound like a story that is in your family? They figured something happened when she got to Chicago where she was supposed to change trains, but what that was has never been known.

That is a really interesting story but not one I am familar with. The Emma Grobe that is my great grandmother was born around 1893 and died December 2, 1956. She was married to Roy Jewison and lived in Minnesota. The records I found indicate that she was born in Minnesota as well.
