NOTE - Is this the correct family? I believe so in spite of the fact that the James Anderson in this census is about 9 years too old. He also lists his father as being born in Scotland whereas in the 1870 census his father stated that he was born in Ireland.
Emma's age is also about 9 years too old but I think that she was probably trying to match their ages more or less because in truth, James was about 10 years older that she. But she and her daughters shown here, Lotta (Charlotte) and Chloe, all show up in the 1900 census in Mansfield which is where the obituary for her father in 1904 said she lived. The obituary fails to mention any other family members other than Emma.
