   William Jonas (48, M23 yrs, TX); Emilie (48, wife, 5 of 5 children, TX); Harry (22, son, TX); Hubert (21, son, TX); Ella (14, dau, TX); Walter (12, son, TX); Ella (12, dau, TX)

On May 25, 1910, Harry was enumerated with his parents as a single person, but according to the information from Linda Mullen, he married on Feb 10, 1910. Need to check the marriage records.

   Harry Jonas (23, M1 0 yrs, TX, TX, TX); Augusta (32, wife, M2 0 yrs, 4 of 4 children, TX, TX, TX); Ida (13, step-dau, TX, TX, TX); Rhinart (10, step-son, TX, TX, TX); Edmond (7, step-son, TX, TX, TX); Ruena (4, step-dau, TX, Georgia, TX)

Linda Mullins writes: I don't know the story of this couple but I do know that the date of their marriage (1910) is after the dates of the births of all the children. They are listed as step children in 1910 census and then Harry died in 1912. Augusta was married several times before she married Harry. The children belong to Benjamin Adolf Jonas of the August Jonas line. So their information will be recorded on the August Jonas side of the family tree. Evidently they divorced some time after the last child was born and then a few years later she married Harry Jonas, who in a round about way was Benjamin Adolf's cousin. Another interesting note. Harry married his step-mother's sister. His father's 2nd wife, Emma Lex was an older sister of Augusta. I don't know what happened to Augusta after Harry died. She is not living with her parents in 1920 or 1930. The information I have on her I gleaned from Fred Jonas who is a direct descendant of Ben Adolf and Augusta Jonas.
