The Dwelling number is 21.
The family was the 21st to be enumerated. Carl is renting the land he is farming. He is 44 years old and has been married 20 years.
The number/letter 13,19, V, are codes for the census office.
It repeats that he came to the Unied States in 1905 [versus 1906 in the 1920 census] and is naturalized.
He farms a "General Farm". the UUUU is another code for the census office to insert.
He is the employer on the farm.
He is not a veteran of the United States.
His farm is #17 on the Farm Schedule.
It looks like she gave the information to the census taker, designated by the "H".
She has never attended school, and on this census it states that she is unable to read or write. The census then repeats where she and her parents were born.
[Where is Annie the daughter? Did she die in the past 10 years or did she get married and move away?]
Carl Jr. is listed first among the children He is 21 years old and single.
He is not attending school, but can read and write.
It repeats the information about where he and his parents were born.
Because the language line is empty he speaks and reads English.
He is a laborer, possibly working on the farm.
Leo, who is 19 and his sister Bertha, aged 15 years, do not go to school. They can both read and write English.
Leo might be working on the farm, and Bertha might be helping her mother at home.
Emma aged 12, and Reinhold aged 10 are both attending school and can read and write.
Ester is 7 years old and Edward is 4 years old. Edward is the exception - it says he was born in Illinois. I wonder if he is Annie's (the daughter) child?
What I find interesting is that in the columns where the mother and father were born, Grimm is crossed out, and Russia is not. That is also noted on Carl's census entry. There is a town named Grimm in Russia. Please see refer to future posts.
