Validator (claude-sonnet-5-5, 2026-10-28): contradicts, confidence 1/4, tier record.
The image shows the Norman Wood household with daughter Marjorie, age 14, single, so the age fits a June 1925 birth. Her birthplace, however, appears to be Illinois, as for her older siblings, which contradicts the claimed Madison, Wisconsin birthplace. This record would need to be reconciled with a birth record or other source before the place is accepted.
Matches: Household in Two Rivers, Manitowoc, Wisconsin: Norman Wood (50, b. New Jersey), wife Mae, and daughter Marjorie, listed as the 14-year-old daughter on line 66; Age 14 on 4 April 1940 fits a birth in June 1925; Surname Wood and the given name Marjorie match the claimed person (the enumerator wrote 'Marjoria')
Flags: Birthplace for Marjorie (line 66) reads 'Illinois', not Wisconsin. This conflicts with the claimed birth in Madison, Dane County, Wisconsin.; Her siblings Franklin and Virginia are also recorded as born in Illinois, while Katherine (13) and Norman Jr. (9) are born in Wisconsin. This suggests the family was in Illinois around 1925, not Madison.
Limits: A census gives an age and a state of birth, not a birth date or a town, so the 15 June 1925 date and Madison cannot be confirmed or refuted in detail; The middle name 'June' and the later married name Konecny do not appear in this record; The handwriting for the birthplace on line 66 is somewhat faint, but it appears to read 'Illinois'
