Great Grandma Emily was also a young bride. She married Great Grandpa Seth several years after the Civil war. She was a teenager and he a seasoned war veteran. They loved each other very much but found that they would have preferred starting their life together if Emily would have been older.
Aunt Grace also shared with me that they did not have children because she did not want any.
