obituary from Falmouth Enterprise, March 27, 1984:
Caroline A. (Alexander) Emery of Ransom Road, Quissett, died at her home Sunday after a long illness. She was 70.
Born in Lockport, Illinois, she moved to Falmouth from Rolling Hills, California in June 1962 with her family.
Mrs. Emery enjoyed the outdoors and was well known for her gardening. She started a garden when she came here in 1962 and added something new each year. At latest count the garden included 50 fruit and nut trees and countless kinds of vegetables.
