Of course there could be more Emma Staffords out there. I also would find it odd for the quiltmaker not to use the "P" as an initial when making the quilt if she was married in 1876. Emma Stafford Petit would be low on my list of candidates for maker. If you are in contact with family, try building a family tree backwards from their known relatives. Include aunts as well as direct descendants. Just coming up with geographical locations between 1862 and 1900 would help.
