marrige to Robert Edward Wood, no relation to John Wood. Kate filed for a
divorce in 1898. Custody of Emma was awarded to Kate. Robert was
awarded to Edward. With the help of Kate's mother, Robert took both
children while Kate was working at the Post Office. He took them to his
home in San Francisco. The children lived with the father after the divorce.
