Research Notes (Conflicts/Spelling/Followup)
CONFLICTS
Residence (15 Apr 1910): This database is split. A 1910 U.S. Census record for Hamden Township, Becker County, Minnesota (where she is listed with her parents) conflicts with a 1910 U.S. Census record for Fargo, Cass County, North Dakota (where she is listed with her brother). The locations are separated by roughly 40 miles. The two entries may reflect Elmira living some part of the year in both locations, and confusion between the parents and the brother as to which constituted her permanent residence, when the enumerators visited them. [census-us-1910-ps-mn-becker-13-2a, census-us-1910-ps-nd-cass-46-4a]
SPELLING
Given Name: This database uses Elmira Cornelea. The 1900 and 1910 U.S. Censuses (in Becker County), and the 1885 and 1895 Minnesota Censuses use Elvira for her first name.

FOLLOWUP
Roughly half of the sources identify her as Elvira (or Elvera), the other half as Elmira. Did she use both?
In the 1905 Minnesota Census, Elmira is noted as having moved to Minnesota (enumeration district 7), 22 years and 2 months before the census. However, her parents moved into the same enumeration district only 16 years and 2 months before. Was Elmira sent ahead to live with relatives, or is the census record wrong? [census-us-mn-1905-becker-hamden-7]
Where she was living in 1910 is unclear. The records for both her father's household and her brother John's household claim she was living with them on 15 April. However, both agree that she was a department store sewer/dressmaker. [census-us-1910-ps-nd-cass-46-4a, 1910 US Census-hamden]
She may have died 3 Mar 1959.
