Prussia, occ. painter) with wife Mary (50, Prussia, midwife), son-in-law Henry DEUS(sic) (35, Prussia, barber), daughter Gussie Deus (28, Prussia, keeping house), granddaughter Mary Deus (4, NY), and Pearly Schroeder - other.

| Note* | According to family lore, Carl and his family were in Chicago after the Chicago Great Fire (10/8/1871) and in Portland after the Portland Great Fire (8/2/1873). Since he was naturalized in New York City in 1874, they must have moved later. Since he was a painter, I wonder if he moved to those cities to find work after all the destruction that had occurred. The family was in Oregon by 1880. |
