Research notes for Howard

Son of Andrew Engstrom and Emma Mecum. At least, I think so...

The 1900 census record search...
I found this record, but it raised a lot of questions. Working backwards, I was able to track J. Howard and his widowed mother, Emma, from Iowa back to Kansas, back to Princeton and then the 1900 record. It didn't match well, but matched some and... well, take a look. Decide for yourself. I'm not ready to say it's correct, but it sure is interesting. EDIT - The more I look at this, the less I think it's correct.
