Wisconsin when his daughter was born.

Emma was the grand niece of James Fenimore Cooper and great granddaughter of Lewis Morris who was a signer of the Declaration of Independence.

She grew to womanhood in the West although given the educational advantages of the East.

Her husband, George Lefevre, to whom she was married on September 13,18SS, was a noted
plainsman and scout and for a time they made their home in Denver, Colorado when it was a mere trading post. The plainsman and scout later became a judge in Colorado.

It was there they were living in 1867 when Mrs. Lefevre became ill and her husband sent her with their son and only child, Henry Belfield to Berne, Switzerland for treatment at the famous baths.

Judge Lefevre died on July 30, 1871 and his wife and son returned to America, settling in Oregon.

While essentially a woman of the frontier, Mrs. Lefevre was a writer of more than ordinary ability and at the same time a ravenous reader. She always manifested a keen interest in political
affairs and even during her later years she had a thorough knowledge of what was going on not
only in political circles but in social affairs generally.

From Oregon she came to Skagway, Alaska in 1898 and the north was thereafter her home. She
moved to Juneau in 1913.

Emma Lefevre died in Juneau, Alaska on June 30, 1926. She is buried in Evergreen Cemetery.
