Notes for Jannes (John) (Spouse 1)
Immigrated to America in 1875. Had 6 children, & all were alive in 1900. Need to recheck this census record as I have two daughters Alice, both alive.161 Based on Social Security Death Index, I conclude that the second Alice should have been a son William, because SSDI has a William born the same month and year (Mar 1898).2

Became naturalized citizen 30 Dec 1895, after declaring intent 1 Apr 1884.41
