Emma Georgette Barham1

b. 4 May 1911, d. 3 March 2011
     Emma Georgette Barham was born on 4 May 1911 at Emeryville, Alameda Co., CA.1 She was the daughter of Courtney L. Barham and Emma R. Stoer.1 Emma Georgette Barham died on 3 March 2011 at Chester, Plumas Co., CA, at age 99.1

Emma Georgette Barham Callaghan passed from this life peacefully with her son and nephew at her side Wednesday morning, March 3, 2011, at Seneca Healthcare District hospital located in Chester, at the age of 99.

Born May 4, 1911, in Emeryville to the late Courtney and Emma (Stoer) Barham, Emma was raised in Emeryville and Piedmont, and attended the Anna Head School for Girls in Berkeley. She went on to continue her education at the University of California Berkeley, graduating with her bachelor's degree in 1932 and earning her master's degree in social work in 1935. She was a member of the first class of the School of Social Work at UC Berkeley.

Emma worked as a social worker for Alameda County from 1935 – 40, and during this time she met a local banker, Joe Callaghan. The couple was married in 1940 and settled in Livermore, where they resided until Joe's passing in 1974.

Emma was active in the civil affairs of her community and served as a volunteer in the local schools.

Her love affair with the Chester and Lake Almanor Basin began when her parents built a cabin in the Feather River Homesites in 1928. She spent summers there until 1974 when she moved to Chester permanently. Emma was an ardent outdoorswoman, devoted to hiking, skiing and the solace of the forest. Until well into her 90s she continued her morning walks and twice daily swims in the North Fork of the Feather River. Due to the love and care of her son, nephew, caregivers and neighbors, she was able to keep her independence and reside in her home until her passing.

In passing, Emma leaves her son Paul and his wife Nina Callaghan of Yona, Guam; grandson Oldak and reared nephew Lemal; nephews Randall P. Cramer and his wife Carol and their children Christopher and Caryn, and James C. Cramer and his wife Helen and their daughter.

Following burial next to her husband in the Chester District Cemeter.
