Residence (family)
1920 census states he owns the house; 1930 census states that he is renting.Oddly at this time, another Louis Turtel lives uptown. Incredibly, his wife is named Tillie.
Naturalization
Stated as naturalized in 1910 census.Stated as citizen in 1915 census.
Stated as alien in 1920 census.
Stated as citizen naturalized in 1900 in 1925 census.
Stated as naturalized in 1930 census
Occupation
1920 census states he owns the house; 1930 census states that he is renting.Residence (family)
The 1930 census shows that he is renting this home. However, the indicated rent is much higher than that of the neighbors. Furthermore, the previous census states that Louis owned this same home. So I conclude that the entry is in error and that the value has a misplaced (or misread decimal point) and should be read as $15000 rather than 150.00.So, now the question is whether the number $15,000 is impossibly high.
