Individual:
Emma Stanley Milligan died a few years after the birth of Effie Lee, their only child. Clay Milligan never remarried.
Emma was a teenager when her own mother died. Her oldest brother, Alfred Dorsey Stanley, was named "guardian and tutor" for her in the settling of the estate (in St. Mary Parish, Louisiana), and because her mother died intestate, the court also required a "family council" of family or friends to oversee the handling of her part of the estate. Those named to this council were "Henry M. Huntington, maternal uncle, Octave Cornay, Robert W. Allen, William F. Haifleish, and Joseph W. Lyman, friends of the minor in default of relations or connexions residing in this Parish or within thirty miles of the courthouse thereof." Henry M. Huntington became seriously ill before the group could meet and was replaced by Joseph Charpantier. At the time of their mother's death, the three boys were adults, with two (Edgar and Cecil) living in Mississippi and one (Alfred) in Louisiana. By 1869 Edgar was back in St. Mary Parish, Louisiana, with Alfred and Cecil in Hinds County, Mississippi. It is not clear where Emma was living during this time, though it is quite likely that she was the E. Stanley, age sixteen, listed among the students at Whitworth College in Brookhaven (Lincoln County), Mississippi, in the 1870 census.
