(On this census record the writing looks different for the father's birthplace than on the rest of the page. It look like it was filled in later with a different writting instrument. Also the space for the father's place of birth is blank for all the children. I think someone filled it in with the wrong place of birth for the head of the house, for whatever reason. Check actual census record. )
