Il Deaths and Stillbirths Index 1916-1947 lists place of birth as Clarens, Wisconsin. I think this is a typo. Could it be Clarno? or somewhere else?

1900 Census Emma was 29 year old widow with the last name of Howard living with her mother Elizabeth Leiby who was 63 and also a widow.

Illinois marriage records Mrs. Emma Howard married John Dorst Jan. 9, 1901 in Stephenson County, IL.

1920 Census John H. Dorst born 1875 Missouri
Emma Dorst born 1872 Wisconsin

I think that her husband John Henry Dorst was born March 23, 1875 and died Oct 17, 1932 in Gentry, MO, or King City, MO.

I haven't found any record of who she was married to before (last name was Howard).
