In 1902, when she was 23, she married Harry Stockton Ream, who was 20 years her senior. They had two children, Harry Stockton Ream, Jr., and Samuel Croxton Ream. They lived in a home just two blocks from where Emma grew up.
Emma was interested in her family history and for a number of years worked to gain membership in the DAR. She was granted admittance through her GGGrandfather, Jacob Crites, who served as a private in the Revolutionary War. Her member number is #251573. She was the founder of the New Philadelphia, Ohio, chapter of the DAR.
Her nickname "Mee-Mee" was given to her by her grandchildren. She didn't like the name Florence and always used her middle name, Emma.
