Olga Kohler and Third Husband Emerson McMillin III
No marriage certificate can be found for Emerson McMillin III and Olga Kohler. His
mother lived in Italy and there is a possibility they were married abroad but this is only a
guess by the author. The author also ventures to guess their marriage took place in 1929,
or after. Their obituaries state:
Obituary - Emerson McMillin 3d, grandson of Emerson McMillin, capitalist and art
collector, died in this city on Friday after a long illness at the age of 41. He is survived
by his widow, Mrs. Olga Kohler McMillin of the Hotel St. Regis, and his mother, the
Baroness Traverso of Florence, Italy, who is now in New York.
