Sources

Mathias first appears in the 1900 Federal Census Population Schedule. He is in the Frank Zeller household in Hammond, Lake County, Indiana. [2]This was sheet 6B in Enumeration District 36. I assume that there was a bit of language difficulty between the census enumerator and my Grandmother, for Mathias appears as Mattie, a three-year old girl, and his younger brother Aloysius as one-year old Eloise.

In the 1910 Census, the location is the same, but the ED is 67, and the sheet is 8A. Aloysius' name is still a hurdle, and baby Joseph is labeled a girl.[3]

Mathias appears in the 1940 Federal Census Population Schedule. He is listed in the Mathias Zeller household in Springfield township, La Porte county, Indiana. This is on lines 4-8 of page 344, E. D. 46-63B.[4]
