1. ) Marcia Morse's ancestry has been traced back to those who came to this country in the "Mayflower" in 1620. The Embury family was of English ancestry. Marcia Embury was the first teacher in Lapeer county, Michigan, and was active and interesting in her conversation in her old age, and was well known as one of the representative pioneer women of the county.
David Embury was a life-long farmer, and lived about one and a half miles west of Grand Blanc. He was also engaged in various other business affairs, and was for some years a director in the First National Bank, of Flint. He was a Stanch Democrat in politics. His death occurred on June 22, 1886. His widow died on June 26, 1901. She was a member of the Congregational church for more than fifty years.
David Embury and wife were the parents of seven children, two of whom died in infancy. The others are George M., who died in 1907; Jerome D., of Bay City, Michigan; Elliot P., of Morrisville, New York; Emma C, wife of A. B. Armstrong, of Guthrie, Oklahoma, and Clara E., wife of John S. Cook, of Grand Blanc.

2.) "David and Marcia Embury were the parents of seven children, five of whom are still living. The father of this family was killed, June 22, 1886, by a horse running away with him. His widow still survives and now in her seventy-third year she is active and interesting in conversation and is looked upon as one of the representative pioneer women of this county. She is said to have been the first school teacher in what was then a hamlet, now Lapeer, and she is the daughter of one of the very earliest pioneers of Lapeer County."
