Other Emmas

This is my Aunt Emma...Emma Brudwick Kofoid. She was born in Westhope North Dakota on 5 May 1917 and married my Uncle John Kofoid (my Dad's brother) on 16 Oct 1935 when she was 18 years old. She is now 94 years old and lives in Bottineau North Dakota. She is the only family member of my Dad's generation who is still living. She is the mother of my cousins, Neola Garbe & Jim Kofoid.












This is my other Aunt Emma...Emma Kofoid Cram. She was my Dad's older sister. She was born on 15 Jun 1906 in Bottineau North Dakota. She married Orville Cram on 20 Mar 1944 in Portland and died on 11 Aug 1992 in The Dalles Oregon at age 86. She and Uncle Orville had no children. I will post more about this Aunt Emma later...............

  1. I cannot wait to see what you post about the other Aunt Emma. I know more stories about her than anyone. She is the one who told me I have room for another toe...and now I've told Olivia the same thing because Olivia has my toes!

    Call me dimwitted but for some reason I never really thought about Emma Kofoid being Neola's mom. Dense? I don't know. Just didn't put it together.
