Research Note

Note According to Census records for 1900 and 1910, it doesn't seem that Harry Wagner had any children with his 1st wife, Lulu (—) Wagner.

Are the children James Wagner (born about 1915) and Anna Wagner (born about 1917) (named in 1920 & 1930 Census), the children of Harry and Bertha or are they children she had with James Joseph Hogan? The only problem is that on the 1930 census (when Bertha is a widow), these two children are listed as her step-children.
More Research is needed for this family.
I am hoping that the research I have undertaken is correct.
