Growing up, he moved between Texas and New Mexico; his family was active in the RLSD (Reorganized Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints) in both states. He later lived in Oklahoma and various other locations throughout the Midwest. He married twice: the first time to Ardyce R. Owen, with whom he had two children, Ernest Jr. and Patricia. They were married from 1927 until Ardyce’s death in 1973. In late 1973, he married Muriel Haskins; they remained married until Ernest's death in 2005. Ernest held multiple careers throughout his life: administrator for the Civilian Conservation Corps (1935-1942), supervisor at various federal prisons (1942-1951), and real estate appraiser, but he also served as a ministerial representative for more than 60 years, eventually reaching the rank of High Priest. He lived in Santa Rosa for more than 30 years, during which time he was extremely active in church and civic life, holding positions on the Public Utilities Commission (1974-1976), Santa Rosa Planning Commission (1976-1981), and the Committee for Community Development (1976-1982). He died in Santa Rosa in 2005."},{"label":"Find e-Books by This Author","value":"View <a href=\"https://digital.sonomalibrary.org/documents?adv_all=%22Crownover%2C%Ernest Elder%22|AND&searchtypes=Full%20text|Metadata&filter_190=Sonoma%20County%20Local%20Author%20and%20Visual%20Artist%20Works&applyState=true\">e-books</a> by Ernest Elder Crownover"},{"label":"Search Author or Book in Library Catalog","value":"Search for works by Ernest Elder Crownover in the <a href=\"https://find.sonomalibrary.org/client/en_US/default/search/results?qu=%22Crownover+Ernest Elder%22&te=&rt=false%7C%7C%7CAuthor\" target=\"_blank\">library catalog</a>"},{"label":"Search Author in Open Library","value":"Search for works by Ernest Elder Crownover in <a href=\"https://openlibrary.org/search/authors?q=Crownover+Ernest Elder\" target=\"_blank\">Open Library</a>"},{"label":"Search Author in WorldCat","value":"Search for Ernest Elder Crownover's author profile in <a href=\"https://worldcat.org/identities/find?url_ver=Z39.88-2004&rft_val_fmt=info:ofi/fmt:kev:mtx:identity&rft.namelast=Crownover&rft.namefirst=Ernest Elder rel=\">WorldCat Identities</a>"},{"label":"Search SCL Digital Archives for this Author","value":"<a href=\"https://digital.sonomalibrary.org/documents?search=%22Crownover,%22Ernest%22Elder,%221909-2005&searchtypes=Metadata|Full%20text&applyState=true\" target=\"_self\">Crownover, Ernest Elder, 1909-2005</a>"},{"label":"Author Name (Controlled)","value":["Ernest Elder Crownover (1909-2005)"]}],"description":"Ernest Elder Crownover (1909-2005)","sequences":[{"@type":"sc:Sequence","canvases":[{"@id":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/sonomalibrary/iiif/28c4e655-7edb-479a-8ade-9bf9d570c01e/canvas/_1","@type":"sc:Canvas","label":"Ernest Elder Crownover (1909-2005)","height":200,"width":200,"images":[{"@type":"oa:Annotation","motivation":"sc:painting","resource":{"@id":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/sonomalibrary/iiif/28c4e655-7edb-479a-8ade-9bf9d570c01e/full/full/0/default.jpg","@type":"dctypes:Image","format":"image/jpeg","service":{"@context":"http://iiif.io/api/image/2/context.json","@id":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/sonomalibrary/iiif/28c4e655-7edb-479a-8ade-9bf9d570c01e","profile":"http://iiif.io/api/image/2/level2.json","tiles":[{"width":512,"scaleFactors":[1]}]},"height":200,"width":200},"on":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/sonomalibrary/iiif/28c4e655-7edb-479a-8ade-9bf9d570c01e/canvas/_1","metadata":[]}],"thumbnail":{"@id":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/sonomalibrary/iiif/28c4e655-7edb-479a-8ade-9bf9d570c01e/full/500,500/0/default.jpg","@type":"dctypes:Image","height":500,"width":500}}]}],"thumbnail":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/sonomalibrary/iiif/28c4e655-7edb-479a-8ade-9bf9d570c01e/full/500,500/0/default.jpg","logo":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/sonomalibrary/iiif/logo"}
