She must have married Daniel Conkle in 1885, because on the 1900 census she shows up with him in Richland Co Wis. On the record she indicates they have been married for 15 years, she has had 3 children, 2 of which are living:That would be Eva and Leo Conkle.
In 1920 they are in Beloit, Rock County Wisconsin with Cyral, Cecil,Leonard and Theron as children.

Anna is buried in Beloit.

One of Anna's brothers, James, married Elizabeth Wheaton, a sister to Aaron.

If you would like I would email you the PDF census files for the families.
My experience has been that about 90% of the trees on Ancestry.com have major errors that keep getting replicated...the lazy person's genealogy! That Conkle thing was backwards.

I don't know how much research you have done on this family, but it seems they followed much the same path that mine did, New York & Pennsylvania to Ohio to Richland Wisconsin. They were a very tight group of Quakers who married largely within they own group for several generations.

If you are located near Wisconsin, The Richland Center Library has a wonderful History Room with people who are very helpful! Not to mention it is a beautiful area, I traveled there this fall.
