i went into ancestry.com, under search, the world tree section...

i typed in Emeline Van Pelt, with an approximate birth year of 1820 (assuming that she'd be about 20-ish when she had her baby...) this is what i pulled up...

now i know it may not be precise, but it should help get you started anyway...hope it helps some.
