Transcription and reasoning
Validator (claude-sonnet-5-5, 2026-10-28): consistent, confidence 3/4, tier record.
The image shows the right census sheet, with George Wood as head of household (line 21), married, living in Marshfield Ward 3. This supports the residence, relation and marital-status claims. His age is too faint to confirm the 1891 birth, and the census cannot confirm the full name or Jr. Identity rests on name, place and household type.
Matches: Sheet 13A, ED 198, Marshfield City, Ward 3, Wood County, Wisconsin matches the citation's place, page and enumeration district; Line 21: George Wood, relation 'Head', marital status 'M' (married), as claimed; Household includes wife Amanda and young daughters, so a married head of a family fits; The enumeration date is January 1920, matching the claimed year
Limits: The census gives 'George Wood' only; the middle name Slack and 'Jr.' do not appear; George's age is hard to read on the image, so the 1891 birth year cannot be checked; The census does not link this George Wood to the 1891–1977 person; only the name and household fit; The parents' birthplaces (father Canada, mother New York, as I read them) cannot be compared with the database without parent data; Handwriting is faint in places, so some details are uncertain
