Her birth record is here:
"Iowa, County Births, 1880-1935", index, FamilySearch (https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/XVNH-JVL : accessed 20 February 2015), Ruth Ione Hanson, 1901.
It looks like her last name was transcribed incorrectly as "Hanson" rather than "Hansen." I would stick with the "e" version and make a note of "Hanson" in the Other Names field.
