• Notes

  Enos was married three times and Elizabeth was his third wife per great grandson, Guy L. Drollinger. Further, they lived in the Tipton, IA area. Guy is positive that Enos' father's name is "Henry Drollinger" - he just isn't sure yet which Henry Drollinger. (26 Dec 2007) Enos and Elizabeth moved from Pennsylvania to Cedar County, Iowa in the late 1800's. They are found in the 1870 census records in Fairfield Township, Cedar County. The family later moved to Shannon City in Union County, where Enos is found in the census for 1880 living with his second wife, Caroline. On Main Street in Shannon City was the Enos Drollinger Hotel - Rooms Upstairs. It had a large dining room where meals were served, and in front was a room they called the bar room. There was no bar in it, just a big wood trough to wash up in! The water ran through the floor into a ditch below. From: Memoirs of Shannon City by Charles Drollinger. Title: Biography of C.L.
