Line 36 of the 1940 census, sheet 7A, Marshfield, Wisconsin, lists George S. Wood as head of household, age 48, married, born New Jersey, working as a public accountant. This matches the claimed residence, relationship, marital status and occupation. The birth year implied by his age fits 1891. The only gaps are the unexpanded middle initial and the missing 'Jr.'.
Matches: 1940 census, Marshfield, Wood County, Wisconsin, Ward 3, Sheet 7A, ED 71-16, matching the citation detail; Line 36: George S. Wood, Head, male, white, age 48, married, born New Jersey; Occupation recorded as public accountant (auditing and accounting), matching the claimed occupation; Wife Amanda, 48, and daughters Christina (23) and Louise (21) are in the household; Age 48 implies a birth year of about 1891–92, consistent with 1891; Middle initial S is consistent with Slack
Limits: The census shows only the initial S, not the full middle name Slack; The record does not say 'Jr.', so the link to George Slack Wood Jr. rests on age, name and occupation; Age 48 gives an approximate birth year, not an exact date; The handwriting is small, so some entries (for example the exact birthplace) are partly inferred from the image
