    George and Margarete, both 30 years old, are living in the household of Margarete's mother, Lena Van Wye. A family of four, the Brainards, are also living in Lena's household. The census is written in a confusing manner and the Ancestry transcription of the family listing is incomplete. The Brainards appear to be lodgers, not relatives.
