b. 17 October 1924, d. October 1965
Family
Father*Carroll Schildt1 b. 12 Aug 1899
Mother*Cecile Ground1 b. 25 Nov 1905
Birth*17 October 1924Emoreen Schildt was born near Browning, Glacier County, Montana, on 17 October 1924. After identifying three conflicting dates for her birth, we finally located Montana's official birth entry for her, and found she had been recorded as "Emorie". We had been unsure of her birth date because at her first marriage she had reported her date of birth as 17 July 1924, and we now suspect she may have provided the earlier month in order to meet a legal age requirement. Her date of birth was consistently recorded, each year on the Blackfeet Reservation Indian census rolls, as 17 October 1924, and it was recorded as 17 October 1925 when she married her third husband in 1954.2,3,1,4 
Name VariationShe was called Emorie.5 
(Daughter) Census Indian Rolls31 December 1936Emoreen was enumerated with her parents as "Emory" on the Indian census taken on 31 December 1936 on the Blackfeet Indian Reservation, Montana. She was 12 years old and her date of birth was recorded as 17 October 1924.3 
Marriage*7 April 1945She married first, as his first wife, James K. Kittson, son of Michael J. Kittson and Mary Howling, on 7 April 1945 in Cut Bank, Glacier County, Montana. James was 25 years of age and Emoreen was age 20.4 
Divorce*18 July 1945Emoreen was granted a divorce from James K. Kittson on the grounds of incompetence because of intoxication on 18 July 1945 by the Ninth Judicial District Court in Cut Bank, Glacier County, Montana.6 
Marriage*12 July 1947She married second, as his first wife, Fernando Barbaria on 12 July 1947 in San Francisco, California.7 
Naturalization*20 July 1950 On 20 July 1950, Fernando petitioned the District Court of the United States at San Francisco for naturalizaton7 
Citizenship*18 February 1952 and he signed his Oath of Allegiance and became a citizen of the United States on 18 February 1952.7 
Divorce*1953Emoreen and Fernando Barbaria were divorced, or at least separated, by about 1953.1 
Marriage*8 November 1954She married third, as his fourth wife, Clair A. Mallo, son of Frank Mallo and Della Grenier, on 8 November 1954 in Conrad, Pondera County, Montana. Both reported only one previous marriage.1 
Divorce*18 December 1957Emoreen was granted a divorce from Clair A. Mallo on the grounds of extreme cruelty on 18 December 1957 by the Ninth Judicial District Court in Cut Bank, Glacier County, Montana.8 
Marriage*17 December 1958She married fourth, as his first wife, James J. Burns, son of James J. Burns and Helen Dean, on 17 December 1958 in Yellowstone County, Montana.5

Louisa Schultz1

b. 1846, d. 1891
Family
Birth*1846Louisa Schultz was born about 1846 in Germany.2 
Marriage*1871She married, as his first wife, Frederick Bassin in 1871 in Germany.1 
Immigration*1884Louisa Schultz and Frederick Bassin immigrated in 1884.1 
Census State NE 1885*23 June 1885Louisa and Frederick Bassin were listed on the 1885 Nebraska State census taken on 23 June 1885 in West Point, Cuming County, Nebraska. Frederick was 43 years of age and worked as a laborer, and Louisa was 39 years of age and keeping house. Three children were listed with them. Murina was 16 years old, at home, and was, possibly, the daughter of Frederick and an earlier wife, or the daughter of Louisa and an early husband. The couple's two children, Louise and Fred, were ages 12 years and 9 years, respectively, and were at school.2 
Relocation*between 1885 and 1886 Between 1885 and 1886, Louisa and Frederick moved with their children to Antelope County, Nebraska.1 
(Mother) Death7 June 1887Her son, Fred, died in a sad accident at the age of 11 years on 7 June 1887 in Stanton, Antelope County, Nebraska. He had gone to the unfinished well on his family's land to get water for his mother. The well was about twelve feet or more in depth and had so little water in it they could not use a bucket so, as he had done before, Fred descended the steps and filled a pail with a dipper. On this particular day, however, his father was away helping a neighbor and when Fred went down, the bank of the well caved in and buried him. His mother dug him out, but the pressure of the earth was believed to have killed him instantly. The story in the newspaper expressed the community's sympathy for the family reporting that, "it makes the heart feel sad to think of the agonizing efforts of the mother trying to rescue her boy."3 
Death*1891She died about 1891 in Cuming County, Nebraska, at about age 45, leaving her husband, older daughter, Louise, and baby daughter, Antoinette, who was not yet two years old.1

It makes the heart feel sad to think of the agonizing efforts of the mother trying to rescue her boy. Hereinafter cited as Friederich Bassin's 11-Year-Old Son Killed in 1898 Nebraska Accident.

Father*James Scott2
Marriage*She married Captain ______ Fitzmaurice.3 
Name Variation The Links - Genealogy source identified her surname as "Fitzmonica-Scott", which may have been a combination of her first married name, "Fitzmaurice", as transcribed from the Old Rossorry Parish records, or "Fitzmonica", as spelled on the Links site, and her maiden name which may have been "Scott."4,3 
Marriage*before 12 December 1816She married Lieutenant George Bell, son of George Bell Esq. and Catherine Nugent, shortly before 12 December 1816 in Old Rossorry Parish, Enniskillen, County Fermanagh, Ireland. The Enniskillen Chronicle published on 12 Dec that Lieutenant George Bell of the 34th regiment, Clonmel, was married to Mrs. Fitzmaurice, relict of the late Captain Fitzmaurice of the Queen's County Militia.3,2
