Emma Mae Peck

1876 - 1945  (~ 69 years)

• Name	Emma Mae Peck
  Born	Jan 1876	Pleasant Hill, De Soto County, Mississippi, USA
  	I feel that the 4 year old girl living with her Aunt and Uncle in Pleasant Hill, Mississippi is our Emma M. Peck. That record says she was born in Mississippi. Emma's parents were not reliable sources for information. I am hoping her Aunt and Uncle were more reliable. I am going to say she was born in Pleasant Hill, Mississippi in about 1876.

  Census Records		U.S. Census Helena, Phillips, AR 1880: D.W. Peck Family The census record show D.W. Peck born in Iowa and parents both born in Iowa, age 42 (b. 1838) recently married to May Peck age 23 who is occupied as a brick mason. They are living on Walnut Street in Helena. The 1850 Census indicates that he lived in Iowa then. Maybe that is his basis for saying he was from Iowa. I am wondering where their daughter Emma was. (I believe I found her living with her Aunt and Uncle in Pleasant Hill, Mississippi.) Daniel was on the lamb. He was actually 48 years old. The record indicates that he had only recently gotten married.
  		U.S. Census Helena, St Francis, Phillips, AR 1900: Daniel W. Peck Family Page 1 The family now rents a home at 316 Franklin Street, Helena, AR. He has gotten younger with his birthday now in Nov 1849 and only 50 years old and married to Mary fro 21 years. Now he does not know where his father was born and his mother was born in Virginia. Mary has lost a few years and shows her birthday as July 1859 and age 40. Emma M, daughter born Jan 1878 is age 22. You have to go to the next page of the census for the rest of the information.
