Janis,I finally unraveled the 1883 date on Bertha & Otto.You are right, they are not twins.Otto's birthday is January 19, 1882, which makes him 18 at the time of the census (March 31, 1901) and Bertha's birthday isApril 16, 1883, which also makes her 18 at the time of the census.Emil's real birth year is 1884 not 1888.I figured that out with the help of the marriage record for Emil & Veva (my grandparents) in Merrick County, Nebraska, & from the newspaper clipping about their 60th Wedding Anniversary.
I have some photocopies of some photos of your Wilmina (Minnie).As soon as I scan them, I can send them to you if you would like.Maybe some others of siblings, etc. too.
