Notes

Note N10Known as "Percy."

1920 census (enumerated 1/12/20): Was widowed, and living in rented quarters at 1645 Page St. in San Francisco with her daughter Lottie. She is listed as age 58, which would put her birth date at 1861 [1910 census indicates a birth date of about 1865]. It's possible that I read "55" as "58," or that the writing wasn't clear. Parents both listed as born in Germany, with native tongue of German. (Roll 142, vol 111, ED 332, sheet 9, line 34)
