Cheryl, Godfrey and Edith Nelson were in Sioux City, Woodbury County, IA in the 1910 Federal Census, married 2 years with no children. By the 1920 Census They had moved to Slope County, ND and 9 year old Arlone is on that census report. There were two school teachers boarding with the family at that time. The Nelson's were born in Minnesota and don't seem to have stayed long in Iowa. I don't know about your Arlone Lennie, but I only find 4 Lennie households in the Iowa Federal Census information that I have access to. They are: 1910 Monroe County, IA Emmila Lennie, age 38 and wife Mary Lennie, age 29 both French immigrants, married 11 years, four children all born in IA (no Arlone) Louis Lennie, age 19, born in Belgium and wife Minnie Lennie, 20, born in England, Married 2 years, one daughter, Alfreda, age 1 year 4 months. 1920 Monroe County, IA Louis Lennie, age 32, born in France and two daughters, Alfreda age 12, Angeita? age 10, also housekeeper Eva Henderson X. Lennie, age 53, wife Mary Lennie, age 53, four sons and one daughter, (no Arlone) Monroe County and Woodbury County are not very close so I doubt a connection.
