Emma Blair Ferguson1

     She was born on 26 December 1859 at Canada West, United Province of Canada.3,4,2,1 Emma married James Harvey Jamieson.3,4
     Emma Jamieson died on 1 February 1887 at age 27.3,4
     Emma Ferguson was buried at Drayton Cemetery, Drayton, Pembina County, North Dakota, USA.3,4
     Emma Blair Ferguson appeared on the 1871 Canadian Census of Ross Twp., Renfrew County, Ontario in the household of her parents, Peter and Catherine Ferguson.1
     Emma Ferguson appeared on the 1881 Canadian Census of Ross Twp., Renfrew County, Ontario in the household of her parents, Peter and Catherine Ferguson.2 In the death registration of Emma B. Erickson, who died on 27 January 1917, Emma B. Ferguson, who was born in Ontario, was identified as her mother.5
     The following analysis is from my personal research and reflects my attempts to consolidate information from different sources.
Emma Blair Erickson's (née Jamieson) death certificate gives her birth date as 16 Jan 1888, and her mother's maiden name as Emma B. Ferguson. The 1900 census gives her birth date as Jan 1888. This appears to verify that she was born in 1888.
     A cemetery transcription and the Find A Grave memorial page for her mother, Emma Blair Jamieson née Ferguson, gives her date of death as 01 Feb 1887 which was prior to Emma's birth. When you look at the photo of the grave marker on Find A Grave, the last digit of the year is obscured by grass. Only the top of the last digit is visible. It could be a 7 and is not an 8.
     It is possible that Emma Blair Jamieson died shortly after Emma Blair Erickson's birth, possibly even from complications of that birth.
     I conclude, for now, that the date of death on Emma Blair Jamieson's Find A Grave memorial page is probably correct. The mystery remains.6
