Birth*1 April 1889 Ray Elgin Elliott was born on 1 April 1889 at Marengo, Iowa County, Iowa.3,4,5,6 
Anecdote*1892 There is a fascinating story about Ray, who was kidnapped from his home in Marengo Iowa at the age of about 3, in about 1892. He was located several years later and a trial was held to determine whose child he was. The court ruled in favor of Ann and George and the case became a foundational case for the child custody laws of the state of Iowa.
However, there were still those who doubted that the boy Ray of the trial was truly the boy kidnapped. So in the early 21st century, a DNA test was conducted of Ray's son who was still living at that time and Robert Elliott (son of Ann/George's son Earl Elliott, which confirmed that Ray was truly Ann's boy. Following the trial, a book was written, "Lost and Found" by a Reverend Phillips that documented the entire ordeal.7

He had been employed for some years as section foreman on the F. J. & G. railroad.
The boatmen were Frank Sauter of 132 North Ferry street, James Ramson of Scotia and Cecil Squires of 679 Albany Street.

He was dressed in a dark suit, dark negligee shirt, black socks and shirt. He wore his watch, by means of which, together with a particular lump on his head, the coroner made his identification.

The dead man is survived by a wife, two sons and two daughters. Edward the older of the sons, went to the undertaking establishment and viewed the remains.

Howard Peer, 109 James street, Scotia, and employe of the New York Central, is a brother of the drowned man. He also was in the city last night and saw the body.
