PLEASE NOTE: The correspondence among the children from census to census is poor, which suggests several possibilities, among them: a serious language barrier between a German-speaking family and English-speaking enumerators; the intermittent presence of nieces and nephews in the household; high mortality among the children; adoption of children. If you have documentation sorting this out, please share.
