Claudia Linn..Wife..Jun 1880..20..IA..Housewife..1/1

(Living with husband and son.)

NOTE - Her birth date is believed to be in January instead of June. The writing on the census form looks somewhat like "Jun" but in every other case on the same form, the enumerator wrote "June" and used only the 3 letter abbreviation for January as "Jan". In the case of Claudia's entry, it appears to be just a sloppily written letter "a" which most indexes have translated to be "Jun" instead of the correct month of "Jan".
