Dick - The only ANDERSON name I have is Signa T. ANDERSON, who married Charles COTTON. The 1920 census shows her as being 30 years old, and their oldest daughter is 15. From that I would assume that in 1901, Signa was about 11 and still living with her parents. According to the census, she emigrated from Sweden in 1886 (4 years before she was born, if she was really 30 in 1920) and had naturalized in 1891. Not sure which parts of the above are credible, or if any of this will help link her to the 1901 Bio, which I assume would reference her father (or parents) - and ANDERSON is not an uncommon name.... If you have anything on her, I'd love to have it...
