Jessie is married, owns the house (560 Mercer, the family's address in the directories), and her husband is not in it. The sheet's heading reads: Washington, King County, Seattle City, Precinct 94; supervisor's district 1, enumeration district 160, sheet 3A; enumerated 5 Jan 1920 by Emma E. Woods (the copy here, the project file Mariah-Emma-Dunlap-Bruner-Census-1920.pdf, cited by FamilySearch as "Washington, United States records," image 605 of 1180, image group 004968988). The research notes had put this household in Grays Harbor County (source S37 in Collins-Reed Family Research: From Colonial Virginia to the American West); that was a slip, corrected 9 Oct 2026 (Research decisions).
