They lived on a farm in Ohio. Their grandchildren loved spending time at their farm.
The family story is that Mary Emma Kees was farmed out to the Hart family. This was not an uncommon practice in those days. If parents were deceased or devorced or too poor to properly feed their children they were farmed out to a family who could afford to feed and house the child if the child did chores for them. Most of the time the families who housed farmed out children were kind to them.
That is how Marry Emma and Charles met.
Charles and Mary Emma had 10 (I think?) children:
-Edgar
-Wilbert 1901-1974
-Josepine Iona 1903-1990
-Edward "Hap" 1905-1971
-Lilly 1906-1996
-Chester "Chet" 1908-1972
-Forrest 1912-1916
-Howard Richard "Howdy" 1914-2001
-Bessie Pauline 1917-1990
-Edna Mae 1920-20001
