Emery Orville Grubaugh is the son of George David Grubaugh and Edna Elizabeth Turner. He was born in Nobles County, Minnesota.

I have four different birth dates for him. The U.S. Veterans Gravesite index gives his birth date as 2 Feb 1924, and that's the date I've used in this record. The Minnesota Birth Index, however, gives his birth date as 9 Feb 1924; the SSDI gives his birth date as 20 Feb 1924; and several ancestry.com public trees give his birth as 4 Feb 1924.

Emery enlisted in the U.S. Army on 10 Apr 1943 and was honorably discharged as a CPL on 29 Nov 1945.

Emery never married but he is a brother of Kenneth Ray Grubaugh and of Virgil Clifford Grubaugh. Kenneth and Virgil also served in World War II and are buried in the Rock Island National Cemetery. Virgil was killed in 1944 in the Battle of the Bulge.
