      Note- the 1900 US census lists Arthur McGinnis with DOB of Dec 1898, but SSDI and his draft registration agree on a 21 Jun 1900 DOB. However, the 1905 NY Census supports the 1898 date of birth. The 1910 US Census supports another alternative: that there were two children named Arthur, one born 1898, but dying about between Apr and June 1900, the other born 21 June 1900. Per the 1910 census, the mother bore 8 children, with 7 living.
