Edward seems to have gotten himself enumerated twice, once here and once with his parents; either that or this person is an enormous coincidence.

Given the age difference between Edward and Katherine, we would expect that he had had a prior wife. Columns 11 and 12 cannot be correct.

*Grove? Street

This enumerator was incredibly sloppy, so even where his handwriting is readable, I've little confidence in his reliability. Edward was obviously not the informant. Edward's father was from Alsace-Lorraine, not Paris, and his mother was born in Germany. Frances appears to be adopted; in 1930, her and her father's birthplaces are given as Illinois, not California. Can't find Ottinger.

How can Frances be their granddaughter? None of their children was born in Illinois, and neither of our subjects' daughters is married. She appears to be their adopted daughter (see 1920).
