The census was taken in April 1910. About what year did Myron and Adeline marry?
Correct
Not quite
After the marital status (M1, first marriage for both) comes the number of years of the present marriage: 61. 1910 minus 61 is 1849, a year or so either way. The last two numbers are Adeline's children: 6 born, 5 still living in 1910, a clue that one child had died by 1910.
