Notes
There is clearly something amiss with the 1910 census. The census was
performed on 28 April 1910. In it, Agatha reports that she has given birth
to 4 children of whom 2 are still living. Kermit was born on 24 Mar 1910, a
month before the census, and certainly should have been one of the two still
living -- but he is not listed. Instead, the census lists Elza (6 years old)
and Edward (5 years old). The problem with this listing is that Edward had
died in 1905. Any information that can be shed on this situation would be
greatly appreciated.
