Emme Cobb Cram Milliken

Emme Cobb was born May 8, 1803, in Limerick, Maine, the daughter of Nicholas Cobb and his wife Desire Rogers. Emme married John Cram in 1832, and after his death she married Mr. Milliken. Emme died in Fairbury, Nebraska, on December 16, 1880.  

Both her father and her grandfather, Andrew Cobb, were Revolutionary War Patriots.   

The June 23, 1935, issue of the Lincoln State Journal carried a story about Mrs. Milliken: "With simple and impressive services, a marker at the grave of Mrs. Emme Cobb (Cram) Milliken was dedicated Wednesday afternoon by the Quivera Chapter of the D.A.R."
The newspaper article continued to outline the program at the cemetery: "Two selections by the Fairbury Municipal band; salute to the flag; prayer by chapter chaplain Mrs. Winora Garnsey; music by Fairbury Municipal band; greetings by chapter regent Mrs. Rosa Taylor; unveiling of marker, Mrs. Pauline Cramb Nuckolls, great-granddaughter of Mrs. Milliken; decorating of grave, Marjorie Leigh Nuckolls and Billy Cramb Nuckolls, great-great-grandchildren of Mrs. Milliken; acknowledgment, Miss Myra A. Cramb; biography, L.K. Cramb; eulogy and reminiscences, W. F. Cramb; music by band; benediction, Rev. Harry F. Huntington; taps."

Emme Cobb Milliken was buried in Fairbury Cemetery, Fairbury, Jefferson County, Nebraska. ​
