Notes:
                       Emma Billlings was orphaned when she was 4 years old.  She went to live
    with her grandmother Mary Tokelove Chesson.  When Emma was about 10
    years old the missionaries came to teach the gospel to her grandmother
    and Mary invited them in.  Her son, Henry, was unhappy about this and
    asked the missionaries to leave.  Mary objected and told the missionaries
    to stay and soon after joined the church.  Her husband did not join the
    church and so she decided to leave her home and come to America to be
    with the Mormons.  She wanted to take Emma, her grandaughter, with her.
    Henry, her son, did not approve and kidnapped Emma.  Mary was beside
    herself because she had booked passage on "The Hudson" to America.  So
    she prayed and while praying she she heard a voice say "Mrs. Trowers".
    She went to Mrs. Trowers and there she found Emma and took her to
    America.
