"In 1880 - well, I have read that some census takers took notes and then went home and copied the notes onto the census form. Some even had their wife or children copy the notes to the form.
It looks like someone was copying to this page and after copying Cunniff Josephine W F 6 daughter, they looked back at the notes - dropping to the birth place for Sophia Blumenthal and her parents - giving that birth place to Josephine and leaving Sophia out. Does that make any sense? (Louis was probably dead.)"
