     Ruth and Albert Emmons were as the 'compiler' believes, the people in the below article, 'A Flatlands Farmer and His Child'. My reasoning includes the review of the 1850, 1860 and 1870 Federal Census showing Ruth. Note the value of Margaret's real estate as listed in the 1870 census. The sum of $45,000.00 is quite high for this period on time

S0METHING OF A ROMANCE
A Flatlands Farmer and His Child
Fortune Disposed of by a Death

Captain Albert Emmons was a thrifty farmer at Flatlands, Kings County, twenty years ago, and many of the residents there knew him intimately. He was somewhat eccentric, and had a great antipathy to matrimony. He was quite wealthy and had an estate of one hundred sixty acres of land. In his house lived a woman named Mrs. Van Dyck, whom he always represented to be his housekeeper. About the year 1852, Mrs. Van Dyck gave birth to a female child. Emmons faced the community manfully and acknowledged the paternity. He was even fond of the little child, and provided for it handsomely. It is not known that he ever married Mrs. VanDyck, and although she survived him, never made pretension that they had ever bound in wedlock. She cared for him with all the tenderness of a true wife and there are those living who respect her for it. Emmons left a will bequeathing all his property to the child, and provided that if she died with a legal issue it should descend to her children. Should she die without issue, the property was to be divided between his nephews and nieces. The child grew up to be a fine looking lady and no stigma was ever associated with her name. She had many suitors, and last October betrothed to the son of a wealthy farmer of New Lots. It was said that they were soon to be married. In January she was taken sick and the physicians pronounced her disease scarlet fever. The last week in January she died. The farm is located in the village of Flatlands. The 160 acres are valued at $1,500 per acre. The nieces and nephews are ten in number and all reside at Jamaica. They are the Naders, Emmons and Snedecors, all well to do people and farmers. The heirs held one meeting, but no definite action was taken. They estimate that the share of each will be $22,000. Article courtesy of “The Brooklyn Eagle”. http://eagle.brooklynpubliclibrary.org/
