Validator (claude-sonnet-5-5, 2026-10-28): supports, confidence 4/4, tier record.
The image shows the 1920 census sheet 3B for ED 149, Chicago Ward 3. Line 65 is Emilie Wood, daughter, single, age 18, born Illinois, in the household of George S. and Mary Wood. This matches the residence, place and relationship claimed. The middle name Wagner and the exact birth date are not in the record.
Matches: Sheet 3B, ED 149, Chicago city, Ward 3, Cook County, Illinois, January 1920, matches the citation; Line 65: Emilie Wood, listed as Daughter of the head, George S. Wood (line 63), with wife Mary (line 64); Marital status is S (single), as claimed; Age 18, white female, born Illinois, so a birth around 1901–02 fits the 1901 birth year; Her birthplaces for father (Canada) and mother (New York) match the head's and wife's own birthplaces
Limits: The name is written 'Emilie Wood', with no middle name, so 'Wagner' is not confirmed; A census age gives only an approximate birth year, not a date; The record covers a 1920 residence only and says nothing about her death in 1984; The handwriting is somewhat faint, so the head's birthplace entry is hard to read
