      The 1900 Federal Census for Pittsburg (sic) City, Pennsylvania, Allegheny County, taken on the 4th Day of June, 1900, Enumeration District No. 196 Sheet No. 5 (?), copy in the possession of Michael A. McKenzie shows the following:

      The place of birth for Joseph's mother and father is Poland (Russ.) The Census reflects that William Frank came to this country in 1882 and that Rachel followed in 1884. William's occupation was listed as that of "Teamster".

      The Census also reflects that William and Racel had been married 18 years, which would have meant that Rachel was eleven (11) years old when they were married.
