William W. Wilson on 1900 census in Philadelphia PA.
in Genealogy Help by Theresa Drass G2G Rookie (220 points)
Found birth records for three of his children and put them in the profiles.  Bad transcription job on Alvin Gordon's.  He is listed as a girl named Olive Jordon.  You may want to confirm William R's.  His birth year is 1874.  The other two match the dates on profiles exactly.    

Still looking for records on William W.
Thank you!
