Notes
Marriage
Roughly consistent with 1910 census -- 28 years.Note that her husband is not with her in 1910 census, but she is marked as Married, not Widowed.
Residence
"Div" is catalogued as "Widowed" by Ancestry rather than Divorced.Why this is the same George Van Keuren as is listed in the 1900 census.
The enumerator instructions for the 1910 census state that "Enumerators were to enter "S" for single, "Wd" for widowed, "D" for divorced, "M1" for married persons in their first marriage, and "M2" for those married persons in their second or subsequent marriage."
In the 1910 census, George's wife is living with his son. She indicates her marital status as married, suggesting that her husband is living somewhere else. A George of appropriate occupation is found boarding in South Norwalk. His age is rounded and his place of birth and that of his parents is wrong, but these errors are sensible considering that someone else, the owner, provided the information to the enumerator. His marital status is a scribble. Elsewhere on the same page, the enumerator has clearly written "WD" for those who are widowed. The scribble for George can be read as "Div". This suggests that George is the estranged husband.
