The original census page is readable and the household of George S. Wood in Chicago Ward 7 includes son Franklin, aged 15, single. This supports the 1910 residence, the relation to head and the marital status. The age fits a birth around 1895. The middle initial is not shown, but the family context fits.
Matches: Image is the 1910 census, Chicago city, Ward 7, Cook County, Illinois, ED 436, sheet 4A, matching the citation detail; Household of George S. Wood (head, 51), with wife Mary B and children Norman B, George S Jr, Franklin and Emilie W; Line 6 reads 'Franklin', son of the head, aged 15, single (S), white male, born New Jersey; Age 15 on 18 April 1910 implies a birth in about 1894–95, consistent with the 1895 birth year; Relation (Son) and marital status (Single) match the claim note
Limits: No middle initial 'G' is visible on Franklin's line, so the full name 'Franklin G' is not confirmed; A census age gives a birth year, not a birth date; A 1910 census does not show the 1918 death date or anything outside the 1910 residence
