Altoona Mirror, Altoona, Pa., March 17, 1916, p. 20, MRS. ANN ADAMS
SCANLAN, Died at the resident of her son. C.C. Adams, in Carrolltown,
Pa., at [?] o'clock Thursday morning, aged 83 years. She is survived
by the following children: Gerald Adams of St. Augustine, Frank Adams
of Altoona, Mrs. Mary Morris of Williamsburg, Mrs. H.S. Sharbaugh of
Carrolltown, William and Otis of Johnstown, Mrs. R.J. Kaylor of
Youngstown, O., and Charles C. of Carrolltown.

First I knew her 2nd husband's name was Henry Scanlan. I just had as
Unknown Scanlan. Possible she was the second wife of Henry.
