Emma was the daughter of John F. Moninghoff, a boatman on the Delaware Canal, and Frances K. Fingeldie Moninghoff.

She married John Henry Fitzgerald in 1910. They had nine children: James in 1911, Mary in 1913, Harry about 1917, Thomas in 1918, Helen in 1920, Lawrence about 1923, E. Martin about 1925, and Rita in 1928. There was a ninth child who didn't survive.

She lived in Milford, Hunterdon Co., New Jersey as an adult.

Emma's early death was a tragedy for her young family.
