Following the War, Peter and Angeline crossed the Detroit River and were living in Malden Township, Essex County, Ontario when Marie Emma Valade was born on June 8th, and baptized at Saint John the Baptist in Amherstburg, Essex County, Ontario on June 10, 1866.
The family soon returned to Monroe County, Michigan and over the next 12 years, Emma would be joined by Francis Xavier, Oliver, Frederick, Mina Mary, Matilda who would die at age 4, and Daniel James.
During this time the United States experienced the Depression of 1873–79. Manufacturing collapsed, wages fell, jobs were difficult to find. Though there was a short recovery in 1878, the economy once again declined. In 1883 Peter moved his family to Bay City, Michigan finding employment with Bousfield & Company, a woodenware manufacturing company.
Emma married Louis Frederick Coash on August 9, 1888 in Bay City, Bay County, Michigan. As their family grew, Louis worked as a Pail and Turner for Bousfield Company and later as a Raftsman. By 1910, he moved his family to Lansing in Ingham County, finding work as a Foreman in a Cement Plant.
Emma and Louis must have been industrious and thrifty, because on October 26, 1919, The Tampa Tribune reported that "Louis F. Coash and family have arrived to take possession of their property of ten acres east of Oldsmar."
COASH -- Funeral services for Mrs. Emma Coash, 68, who died at Oldsmar Thursday, will be held this morning at 10 o'clock at Sacred Heart Church, Father De Stock officiating. Burial will be in St. Mary's Cemetery, under the direction of B. Marlon Reed, mortician.
