description: "Emma Eliza Coe was a Samoan-American princess and businesswoman who became the most prominent woman in commercial enterprise across Melanesia. Born to Joana Le'utu Taletale, a member of the Samoan royal Mālietoa dynasty, and Jonas Myndersse Coe, a representative of the United States in Apia, she was recognized at birth by her Mālietoa family with the royal title, Princess Tui Mālietoa Coe, which conferred land rights and privileges. Known via her three successive marriages as Emma Forsayth, Emma Farrell, and Emma Kolbe, she became recognized throughout the Pacific as Queen Emma — a designation earned through both her royal Samoan ancestry and her substantial economic influence in the region."
