  Notes	In the 1900 census, he is a boarder with his brother Thrond on the farm of Kari Lee, a 76 year-old widow (#23958) in Newburg Twp, Mitchell County, Iowa. This household includes two of Kari’s single daughters (Carrie, 41, and Julia, 39) as well as Kari’s 103 year-old (!) mother-in-law, Guri. In the 1905 Pueblo, Colorado, city directory, he is Iver Ellinghoe, laborer, boarding at 1019 Northern Avenue. In the 1909 Pueblo city directory, he is Ivar Ellingboe, an employee of the Steel Works. He resides at 2132 E Routt Avenue. In the 1910 census, he lived at 1307 Cypress Street in Pueblo, Colorado, where he works at a steel mill. His wife is Nellie. They have been married for four years and it is the first marriage for each. Nellie has had one child, no longer living. Included in the household is Oscar Lee, 50, born in Iowa, “cousin” and a 31 year-old male, name illegible, roomer. In the 1915 Pueblo city directory, his wife is Mary and he is a steel worker. They live at 1307 Cypress. The 1916 directory includes a Theresa Ellingboe, clerk, also living at 1307 Cypress. She is a step-daughter of Iver’s, the daughter of Mary with John Grome. Iver registered for the draft on September 12, 1918, in Pueblo County. Because the name of his employer (Colorado Fuel & Iron Co.) was stamped on the card, the company probably arranged the registration for its employees. At that time Iver and his wife Mary were living at 1027 Pine in Pueblo. He was described as tall and of slender build with brown eyes and light hair. He had lost the end of his right index finger after the second joint. In the 1920 census, he is still working for the steel mill in Pueblo. In the 1930 census, he is still working for the steel mill in Pueblo as a melter foreman. In the 1931 Pueblo city directory, he is a melter for CF&I. He resides St. Charles Mesa. In the 1940 census, he and Mary L live in Pueblo. He is a melter in a steel mill. He had been educated through the fourth grade, his wife through the fifth grade. Also part of their household was Rose Ann Southers, age 13, niece, and Peggy Ellingboe, age 7, daughter. Peggy and Rose Ann had also lived with Ivar and Mary at this house in 1935. Peggy and Rose Ann were born in Utah. The next census entry after Ivar was for his son Robert and Robert’s wife Ann E and son Robert Jr. Rose was the daughter of Van and Josephine Southers. The family was recorded in the 1930 census in Utah. Van Southers was born in Georgia and may have been a brother of Mary L. No Ellingboes were ever born in Utah so we don’t know who Peggy is. She could not have been the natural daughter of Mary L. The 1945 Pueblo city directory shows Iver as a melter for CF&I. His employment record at CF&I shows he worked for that company continuously between about 1902 to at least May of 1945. Along the way he lost one of his index fingers. The company employment card listed him as 5 ft 10.5 inches tall, 160.5 lbs., dark grey eyes and light brown hair.
