Civil War Service: 7th Missouri Cavalry, Company I; mustered into service 15
Oct 1861, promoted to Corporal 19 Jul 1863, and was discharged 10 Dec 1864 at
Little Rock, Arkansas.

From The Pacific Pilot newspaper of 19 Jan 1905:
Mr. Francis M. Emmons died at his home in this city Tuesday morning, Jan. 17,
1905, at about ten o'clock, after a long illness. The funeral was held from the
Mission church yesterday afternoon and was conducted by the Rev. Mrs. P. M.
Storrey, assisted by the Lynch G. A. R., of which he was a member. The remains
were interred in the cemetery west of the city. Mr. Emmons was born in Olmstead,
Lorain County, Ohio, on the 27th day of August, 1837, being sixty-seven years,
five months and twenty-one days old at the time of his death. He was united in
marriage with Miss Annie Grason Jan. 8, 1866, at Paulvill, Adair County, Mo. He
served his country during the Civil war as a member of the 7th Missouri cavalry.
The family came to this place from California five years ago and has resided
here since. The deceased has been suffering for about three years with an
abscess in his right side and during the past four months has been confined to
his bed. Medical treatment was of no avail. A widow and seven children, six sons
and one daughter, are left to mourn his loss in the home. All of the family
except the daughter, Mrs. C. K. Pulsifer, who lives at Cears, Cal., were by his
side when he was called away.
