      Cronk, Nora A., daughter, white, female, born June 1897, 2, single, born Michigan, father born Canada, mother born Canada
      The enumerator was apparently confused by which Cronk fellow was married to which female member of the household. We know from other records that Agnes was wife of Joseph Cronk and Elizabeth was wife of John Cronk.

      Concerning the year of marriage of Agnes and Joseph Cronk of 1878 we know that she married Thomas Turner during 1875 and on later census she states years married to Cronk to be 14, so this date refers to her marriage with Thomas Turner and not to the union with Joseph Cronk.
