Emma Clara burden

[Nyssa Mlaouhi]

Hi

I'm trying to find more on Emma Clara Burden. She was born in England in 1881. The only US record I can find is from New York  the death of a child Dorothy May  Scott. The record states a husband/ father as Ernest Scott also from England. There is nothing in U.K. record to suggest they married here or died here. I'd love to know what happened to her and when she died.

I'm wondering if something happened to Emma & Ernest?

This appears to be Dorothy in the 1920 census. She is listed as "ward" with both parents born in England. There is also a Herbert listed who appears to be her brother.

Herbert listed as boarder with same family in 1930.

Thank you
 Dorothy died in 1924 aged only 13 so I do wonder. I also wonder if Emma and Ernest were actually married as Emma left two illegitimate children back in England (one of whom is my great grand father).  It's always been a mystery as to what happened to her.

I wonder if her parents could have died in the flu pandemic ?

There is an Episcopal baptism for Dorothy May Scott on 23 Jun 1911.  She was born May, 1911.  The location is listed as Bellevue, A5.  Bellevue is a hospital in Manhattan.  Her parents were listed as Ernest and Emily Scott.  The sponsor's name was Miss Silver or Silner, and the minister's name looks like Thos. Worrall or Morrall.
