   1625A Helen St, [next door to daughter Rose & family WOHLERT, q.v.]
   
   Urban JARCENSKI, head, 19 MO GER GER, single, file clerk, commercial company, owns house free of mtge
   Mary JARCENSKI, mother, 61 GER GER GER, widow, 9 births/4 living; speaks German, immigrated 1868; not employed.
   
   

   I wonder if the addresses are mixed up; in 1920, they live and own next door, where Frank and Rose live now. Immigration date appears wrong, as one child born in Poland 1874. Perhaps it should be 1878? And it seems Mary would own the house, not Urban, who's just back from seminary. On the census, the ownership was on Mary's line, then crossed out and put on Urban's.
