1930 Federal Census notes that he is 18 yr old, abt 1911. Big conflict with the 1904 date. The 1900 parents and three older siblings: Amie, Maude, David B. 1910 Father William no mother (but father not stated as Widow either), 3 children as 1900 plus Maime and Chester W. 5, listed. Since he is noted as being alive in 1910 that answers the question of birth year.
