I think the money is going to be on this one, Gene.  While it seems a 
bit different than the A. virginiana on the hort.net site, here is a 
link to a site that shows a photo that is real close.  Your mention 
of a spp. suggests that there is a fair amount of variability in this 
species.
I checked the phote at 
http://www.missouriplants.com/Whitealt/Anemone_virginiana_page.html

 and its the same plant as the one sent in with the question, the diffrence 
is that the subspecies I named has large showy white sepals, while the normal 
form has greenish sepals.  Notice the pointy ends of the sepals. Canadensis is 
rounded.
