The attached image is the 1910 census page for ED 436, Chicago Ward 7, sheet 4A. Line 2 lists George S. Wood as head, age 51, married, with occupation Purchasing Agent. Residence, relationship, marital status and occupation all match the claim.
Matches: Line 2 shows George S. Wood, Head, male, white, age 51 (implies birth c.1858–59), married (M1), 21 years married; Occupation reads 'Purchasing Agt', Venner Mfg. Co., matching the claim note; Header shows Chicago city, Ward 7, Cook County, Illinois; ED 436, sheet 4A, matching the citation detail; Household includes wife Mary B. (48) and children Norman, George S. Jr., Franklin and Emilie, which fits a family headed by George S. Wood; Enumeration date of April 1910 matches the claim year
Limits: Census gives an age, not a birth date, so it cannot confirm birth year 1858 exactly, though age 51 fits; Death year 1940 and other life dates are not addressed by this record; Handwriting is cursive and small; the employer name is not clearly legible but is not needed for the claim
