In 1910, same location, page 76b, Image 152 of 168 All but Joseph have left the home, both parents are still living, and their are two additional children, Charles H., 8, and Earl G., 4. Census taker has still omitted the e at the end of the name. There's a birth in Rockingham for a W. Ed. Crow, 12/1896, W, M, Father, S. H., Mother, Ida - this is probably the child who died.
