Henry is enumerated at the home of his parents, although he is already married. He is also enumerated with his wife & children in Jefferson Co. PA. Rebecca Kline, born about 1829 is thought to be a distant cousin (see the Conjecture section, page of John Klein). Jacob is enumerated at his parent's home although he is (in 1900) reported to have married in 1855. Apparently both Henry & Jacob were visiting home, either because Rebecca was there, or to help out their parents on the farm.

Source notes

  • The 1900 census reports both Jacob and Christina Kline to have been married 45 years, i.e. since 1855. In the 1860 census Jacob is enumerated both at his parents home, and with his own wife and family in a separate location. This is also the case with his brother Henry Kline. It is possible both brothers were home to visit with Rebecca Klein who is believed to be a distant cousin, a descendant of immigrant Philip Wendel Klein. She too is enumerated with the John and Anna Klein family.
  • Who is the mother of Charley Smith, listed in the 1900 census as a grandchild of Jacob and Christina Kline? Sarah E. Kline is age 37 & single in the 1900 census, suggesting she never married. Sisters Clara & Etta disappear after one census so appear to die in childhood. Sisters Mary Jane, Cornelia, and Naomi Laura all marry Weavers. This suggests the older two sisters, Emily/Francis or Susan/Ann to be the mother of Charley Smith.
  • Who were the 7 children (of 14 total) who survived until 1900? We have names of 13 children from the census records. None of the 7 deaths are identified with certainty. Only Sarah E. Kline is enumerated as alive in 1900 in the census collection above.
    • A 14th child born between two census could die young, never having been enumerated. A 14th child born in 1880 after the census, when Christina was 44, could have died. Conversely, it could have survived; it would have been age 20 and out of the home by the 1900 census, and thus not enumerated.
    • Mary Jane, whose husband remarried her sister in 1896, probably died, divorce being unlikely.
    • Charles & Etta, both of whom disappear before age 10, possibly died.
    • Clara & William O., both disappear before age 15. They however could be working away from home.
