37105 Emma's mother died when she was 13 and shortly after, her father was appointed by President Lincoln to the post of United States Consul to Brazil. When her father left for Brazil in Jan 1862, Emma and her three siblings were placed in the care of a good New England family.

Her father returned in Aug 1865. He was to be returned to Brazil for another four years, but he was determined to take his children with him. He met and courted Julia Finney, who happened to be the ideal woman in Emma's eyes. The courtship was very accelerated because her father had to return to Brazil in Jan 1866.

The marriage took place near the end of November 1865 and Julia had only a few weeks to prepare her new family of four children for the 5000 mile trip to Brazil. Emma was quite ashamed of her wardrobe and didn't want her new mother to see it, but after a quick inventory, Emma was delighted when her mother provided her a trunk full of lovely clothes from Cleveland.

On 20 Jan 1866, Emma sailed with her family from Baltimore, Maryland on the little barge "Lapening". Their life in Brazil was a "paradise". There were servents and slaves to do the cooking and housework. Emma's step-mother came to be very much loved by the entire family. She took over educating the children by giving them daily lessons. She also taught them to sing and Emma and her mother often sang duets to help entertain officers from American warships which often visited the port of Rio de Janeiro, where they lived.

Emma also learned to play instrumental duets with Miss Dascombe, the family nanny, and learned to dance from her mother. Although the officers from the American warships visited regularly, the Munroes did not receive visitors on Sundays. That day was reserved for the family.

Emma returned to the states before the rest of the family to continue her studies at Oberlin College. She graduated with a degree in literature in 1869.

While at Oberlin, she met her future husband, Charles, who was one of her classmates. Charles was the son of Isaac N. and Sophia (Pierce) Fitch. He graduated from Oberlin in 1869 with the degree of Bachelor of Arts. He took two years of his seminary training in Oberlin and then went to Yale, where he graduated in 1873 with the degree of Bachelor of Divinity. He was ordained to the ministry in the Congregational Church in North Cornwall, Connecticut on 12 May 1874 and served as the pastor of the North Cornwall Church for seven years. Twenty-five years later he returned to the same church and spent the remainder of his active ministry in the service of that community. The intervening years were spent in Norwalk, Ohio; Wauseon, Ohio (1882-85); Spencerport, Ohio (1885); Colorado Springs and Denver, Colorado; Millbank, South Dakota; and Langsburg, Michigan (1905). For eight years in Colorado, he was the State Superintendent of Sunday Schools. In 1917, after an active service of more than 43 years in the ministry, he retired and the couple moved to New York City where he engaged in Y.M.X.A. work and assisted in some of the pastoral work of the Manhattan Congregational Church. In Dec 1919, he was employed by a bank in the Wall Street district as a special messenger and served as such until Dec 1923. His health failed near the end of 1923 and he went to Southern Pines, North Carolina. He had been there only three days when he experienced a "stroke of apoplexy" from which he made a slow and partial recovery. He returned to his home at College Point, New York about the last of May 1924. Early in June, he had another stroke from which he died on 12 Jun 1924.

Emma served for eight years as President of the Rocky Mountain Branch of Foreign Misisons, beginning in 1890. In 1900 she began serving as President of South Dakota Branch of Foreign Missions and filled that position for at least 35 years. She was a speaker for missions in churches and did the work of associate pastor with her husband.

Emma died of "Grippe" on Staten Island, New York.

37109 Emmett Johnson Whalian (or Whalien)

Emmett's mother died when her second child was born. He was boarded around until his father remarried and he moved back home. Although he loved his father, his step-brothers made his life miserable. His life was brightened by Rosa who had also lost her mother and was living with her aunt Emma, Emmett's step-mother. They both became teachers and had many things in common and they eventually fell in love and married.

Emmett attended Valpariso Normal School to sharpen his teaching skills. Before his marriage, he alternated between farming with his father and teaching schools of 10 weeks to 4 months duration. He was paid $20 per month for teaching.

When Emmett's mother died, she left cash in trust for his college education. He wanted to be a lawyer. He was a brilliant student and looked forward to attending the University of Michigan law school. However, when he was ready to use the money in trust for him, he found that it had been spent by his guardian to buy a piece of land adjoining the farm. This was a keen disappointment.

He tried to become interested in farming but realized that he would not be using his talents in agriculture. He and Rosa and their two girls moved to Ann Arbor, Michigan then moved to Howell, Michigan where he took a job at the Michigan Condensed Milk Company testing raw milk. The family lived there until 1901.

In 1910, the family moved to Fingal, North Dakota where Emmett took the position of Superintendent of Schools. Emmett's Uncle John Kalmbach, who taught at Fargo College at the time, was influential in getting the family to make this move. They moved again to Carrington, North Dakota in 1919 where Emmett went into the insurance business. That summer they moved to Larimer, North Dakota where Emmett taught Manual Arts, or Shop. He served one year as County Superintendent of Schools in Manville.

At about this time, they sent their daughters to California to live with relatives because they thought they would get a better education there. Later, in 1925, Emmett and Rosa moved to California. He got a job in Porterville for a year. They then moved to Salinas, California in later years, where he was very active in the Methodist church. In Salinas, he was robbed of church money and a gold watch as he went home from a church function one night. The church bought him a new watch.

Emmett lived with his daughter, Amy in his old age until it was necessary to place him in a nursing home. One night he wandered away from the nursing home and was found freezing in a field. He contracted pneumonia and passed away. His final estate was valued at $2,288 which was distributed equally among the five surviving daughters.

Emmett was an amateur actor and a good public speaker. He participated in debates and the local Debating Society. He regularly attended the North Lake Methodist Church.

37118 Eoline was the 8th child born to James Archibald Monroe and his wife. She was born in the family home in Lumber Bridge, North Carolina. The first seven children were all boys. Her mother died in childbirth, or within two weeks of Eoline's birth. Her father was thus left with seven sons and an infant daughter.

James Archibald reluctantly arranged with his best friend, Lachlin (Lauchlin?) "Lock" Shaw, of St. Pauls, North Carolina, to adopt Eoline. She was raised as Eoline Peterson Shaw.

She married Dr. Robert H. Spiro, a Baptist minister. They were married in the St. Pauls Presbyterian Church. They moved to Ashville, North Carolian in 1920.

She died at the home of her son, Robert.
