  3. The 1900 Census said George and Mary had been married 16 years, which was consistent with the age (15 yrs) of Mary's son William, but he was her son by her first marriage.
    The 1910 Census said George and Mary had been married 19 years, which was consistent with the age (17 yrs) of their oldest child, George.
    The 1930 Census said that George was first married at age 29, or about 1890, consistent with the report in the 1910 Census and the birth of George and Mary's oldest child.
    The 1930 Census said that Mary was first married at age 16, or about 1883, consistent with the 1900 Census and the birth of her son William by her first marriage.
    Conclusion: Mary was 1st married about 1883/4; she and George were married about 1890/91.
