Roger Cramer shows his date of birth as November 1867. If so, his moth er, Minnie Erdmeier, would have only been 14 years old when she had him . The Smith-Goodale-Caldwell tree shows it as November 1870, in Lincol n Township, Ogle County, Illinois. If this date originally came from t he 1900 US Federal Census, it's likely that it's really November 1871. I t's been my experience that people born after June of a particular year a nd appear on the 1900 census usually have the year of their births stat ed a year before they were actually born. The census was taken in June 1 900, and the officials must have told the census taker to ask them what t heir age was at their last birthday, and then the census taker had to c hange the year so it would agree with the age.
