1930 United States Federal Census

Validator (claude-sonnet-5-5, 2026-10-28): consistent, confidence 2/4, tier record.
The image is readable and shows George Wood, age 38, born in New Jersey, in Marshfield, Wisconsin. The age and state fit the claimed 1891 New Jersey birth, but the census cannot confirm the exact date or town. The middle initial 'E' differs from the claimed 'Slack', so identity depends on other evidence.
Matches: Line 78, household 114 in Marshfield, Wood County, Wisconsin: George Wood, head, male, white, age 38, married; Age 38 on 1 April 1930 fits a birth on 30 July 1891, because he would turn 39 a few months later; Birthplace given as New Jersey, which matches the claimed Ridgefield, Bergen, New Jersey at state level; Occupation is accountant, and the household has several children. Neither detail conflicts with the claim.
Flags: The given name is written 'George E.' but the claimed name is George Slack Wood Jr., so the middle initial is E rather than S. This may be a handwriting or enumerator error, but it is unconfirmed.
Limits: A census gives an age and a state of birth, not a birth date or town, so 30 July 1891 and Ridgefield are not stated; Nothing in the record identifies him as 'Jr.' or names his parents beyond birthplaces (father Canada-English, mother New York), so identity rests on name, age and birth state; The record is a 1930 snapshot and does not link him to the 1891 birth
