Marriage 1 Birth Death Notes
Emiline "Emma" America Dismuke / Dismukes April 1864 (1866?) (1871?)

April 1866 (OH Death Cert)

April 7, 1869, Marriage License, Summit Co., OH		 July 27, 1956
Buried Forest Hill Cemetery, Canton, OH. Died Canton, OH at home of son William T.		 Married Ramah Church, Barbour Co. AL, December 20, 1888

Married John J Higgins b. May 5, 1862, Preston Co., WV, son of Patrick Higgins and Bridget Riley, September 9, 1917, Akron, Summit Co., OH
This web site previously had the name of Muriel Emma Dismuke.  I do not know where the first name Muriel originated from.  All of the print documentation (church, census, marriage license, city directories, death certificates) I have found for Emma, only gives the first name of Emma.

On the Dismukes side of the family, researchers list Emma's full name as Emaline America Dismukes.

About the last name of Dismuke or Dismukes.  The use of the "s" at the end of the name can be considered correct.  The omission of the "s" could also be considered correct.

If you are doing research, use both variations of the name in your search.  Documents found, may use both variations of the name within the same branch of the family.  Even in cemeteries, the same family will use both spellings.  Instead of fighting over which spelling is correct, just accept that both spellings are correct unless you have original source documentation that can track the specific usage of either spelling over a period of time. 

The name Emaline, Emeline, and Emiline - Another name with variations in the spelling.  Members of this family called each other Emma for short, so the full name in documents is rarely found.  One of the only documented sources of the spelling of this name, for this branch of the family, is the grave marker for Emiline's mother, Emiline Hause Dismuke wife of Thomas Jefferson Dismuke.  The name on her marker is Emiline Dismuke.  Therefore, unless someone can prove otherwise, with original source documentation, Emiline will be spelled with an "i" as the third letter in the name.

On all of the records below, just Emma Epperson was found on the records and is used below.

- Between 1900 and 1910 child Jimlie (Child shown as Jam L in 1900 census) dies at age 14 which would have been ca 1904 or 1905.  This child was buried at the Ramah Church Cemetery in Barbour Co., AL with a birth date shown as December, 2, 1890.  With the birth years constantly being varied with this family, it is a strong assumption that the Jam L shown in the 1900 census and the Jimlie buried at the Ramah Church Cemetery, are the same child.  The 1900 Census is the only time Jam L Epperson appears.

- By the 1910 Census Jesse and Emma have two more children that were born between 1900 and 1910.  One child was Richard Pat Epperson.  The other child is unknown and must have died before 1910.  In the 1910 Census, it is reported that there had been 7 children of which only 5 were living.  The five children living in 1910 are Henry Jake, Leola, William R, Rueben/Robert Thornton, and Richard Pat.
 
- Between 1906 - 1907 Jesse and Emma move to Montgomery County, Alabama.  They do not appear in the Montgomery City Directory until 1907

  - In 1930 the Akron City Directory shows Glenn W Hall and Leola living at 496 Mohawk, but when you look at the 1930 Census for 496 Mohawk, there is a Goudy family living there.  So it cam be assumed that Leola and her husband Glenn W Hall moved away from Akron shortly before 1930.  They do not show up again in the Akron City Directories.
