4. Anna Margret (20 Dec 1885 IL - ) at first seemed to be the person in Allen Co, KS, at Iola in 1910. She was a single dry goods saleslady boarding with her cousin Clement B. DENNIS.

6. Edward C. (26 Nov 1890 IL - 18 Nov 1918) by family tradition md on 27 Aug 1914 Mattie Pearl CAMPBELL (14 Aug 1887 Colorado Springs, CO - Dec 1974 AZ), dau of Allen H. and Emma (LUNDY) CAMPBELL. In 1920, Pearl and her son Elnora C. were in Jasper Co, IA, at Baxter with her father, Al H. CAMPBELL. Pearl's SSN was 479-30-6517, applied from IA, R ZIP 85716 AZ. When she appled for SS on 11 Dec 1945, she was working for Dr. Nelsen in Ames, IA. Apparently, she never remarried. It is not clear that Elnora was a son, though that is what the census entry showed. It is thus not clear that there are descendants of Conrow with the VAN NOTE name.
