Need signature help on watercolor

Bought this watercolor here in Central IL this week. I can't make much of the signature. It was framed locally so could be a local artist. However, we get a lot of artists of note who pass through because of the university. Based on framing, I would guess this dates to the 70s or 80s.

First signature is as seen, second is enlarged. Third is enlarged and enhanced. Any help/ideas are appreciated.

 

Nice watercolour Brad.
E Howe? E G Lowe?

 

I like Lowe but trying to see something different. How about Glover? E.Glover? Google brought up a painting by Ethel Glover that's in the same sort of style.

 

Thanks. That is more than what I was getting and both responses makes sense. I didn't find anything searching Howe or Lowe. Off to look at Glover now. This is nicely sealed but I may need to open it up to see if there are any further clues.

 

Not sure this helps in the least.......but.......and the E and G do appear separate............

 

E glisir?
Good luck.

 

OK .... Opened this up and there are no further clues. However, looking at the signature without the glass, I believe the tail seen on the second letter is a less deliberate stroke. Consequently, I am thinking the signature could be E. Oliver ( or E. Olive). I have looked at all possiblities proposed so far and am not able to attribute this.

Edit: Also looked at E. Oliner / Oline .....
