His daughter Elizabeth Emmet (b.1794), Jane's great-aunt, would study portraiture under the direction of a steamboat designer and portrait artist named Thomas Fulton.

After returning to America, she met and married the notable British impressionist painter Wilfrid de Glehn in 1904 in New Rochelle, New York.

Following their marriage, the couple honeymooned in Cornwall, England, vacationed in Paris and Venice, and made a permanent home in Chelsea, London.

[12] When World War 1 broke out, both Jane and Wilfrid joined the staff of a British hospital for French soldiers, Hôpital Temporaire d'Arc-en-Barrois, Haute-Marne, France in January 1915.

After her husband's death in 1951, Jane Emmet de Glehn spent much of her time casually sketching her extended family and members of her social circle.

[citation needed] In late April 2007, Arden Galleries in Manhattan held a family exhibit of five generations of the Emmet women's paintings.
