JOHN): THE ADVERTISER, Saranac, MI, Thursday, March 5, 1914, p 4: "Emily Phillips was born in Monroe County, New York, November 12, 1837 and died at her home in Saranac, Michigan, March 2, 1914. When about eighteen years of age she was married to John Van Warmer. When the war broke out he enlisted and was taken sick while in the service and sent home. He died soon after he came home. She afterwards married Richard Coulson and they moved from New York to Berlin Township where they resided until Mr. Coulson's death which occurred February 1, 1901. She did all that a mother could do for Mr. Coulson's children. On April 8, 1902, she was married to Rev. S. Johnson and has since resided in Saranac. She was a faithful and loving wife and mother. Her home was her delight and she gave it and the members of her household her very best endeavors, tireless in exerting every effort to make her home all that it implies. She was for a number of years a faithful and consistant member of the Free Methodist Church. She leaves to mourn, a husband, one sister, Mrs. Edmond Blossom of Sebewa; one brother, Wm. Phillips of Evert; a number of step-children and other relatives and friends. As her life has passed unto the joy of her Lord, the memory of her life must prove a perpetual inspiration. The funeral services were held from the Free Methodist church on Wednesday, conducted by Rev. D. G. Biggs."
