Further comments

The Kyarra was a 6,953 ton (7,065 t) steel cargo and passenger luxury liner, built in Scotland in 1903 for the Australian United Steam Navigation Company.

Emma says she is single, but has two children (twins), so illegitimate children? No queries, so doesn't seem to matter to officials.
