I have some information copied and will paste here it is from a link the member aghardowey has posted.... This is a glimpse into the life of Emma Aline Seelig.........Emma Aline Seelig born about 1838 Frankfurt, germany.Do not know when she came to England, but had a son george Seelig in Boothhurst Staffordshire, son stayed in and around Abbots Bromley all his life. Emma was ladies maid in london, found in 1881 & 1891 census living with Lionel louis Cohen and family- his wife Esther's Ladies Maid. Does anyone know anything about her background?

Just remember that the Emma Seelig born 1841 Germany may not be the one you are looking for- it's quite common for people with online trees to attach a person with the same or similar name to their own tree  :-\
