Dave:
Just a thought: If she really was 56 it would make her birth about 1879. Her brother Alvin was born in June 1879. Could it be that William Phinney sired her with a "Miss WiIligar" prior to his marriage in March 1879.
However, I did have Emma recorded as having been born in March 1881 from the 1911 census.
