    In the 1900-census he is living with his sister Anna (Annie) and daughter Anna (Annie) in Brooklyn. Willie Edward had passed in February, before the census count on June 1. Gladys and Calda were then in North Carolina to be raised by, and helping, his oldest daughter Hilma (Halma/Helma). Calda got married in Kings, NY in 1901.
    Christian went to Massachusetts for work.
