Hi Dave, I don't know if this is any help; it seems like the wrong Emma
Klose, but who knows, there may be a link. I got it fro a Muriel Klose, at
work.

Here is what I could find out, but I don''t think she is related to Betty.

Emma Klose born +/- 1916, was married all her life to Werner Koch and lived
on a farm called Sandkopf in Namibia. They had five children, three
daughters and two sons: Hilde, Renate, Inge, Helmut and Herman. Emma was
the sister of my late grandfather and she was one of twelve children. She
died on the 7th of November 1997. Maybe there is a link, but I doubt is.
