In searching for Senalik’s in the 1920 Census, I could not find them. In looking for some other relatives records, I accidentally found the Senalik’s in 1920. The census taker had misspelled the name “Sinalik”. In January 1920, they were living in Greenridge, IL. At the time, there were only 6 children, Walter to be born later that year.
I found John Senalik’s Draft Registration Card. It was signed on September 12, 1918. The name is clearly recorded as Senalik. They were living in Greenridge at the time and he was working for the Ridge Coal Co. He was described as medium height, slender build, blue eyes and light brown hair.
The spelling of the name conflicts with the naturalization certificate of 1921 even though these two documents are earlier dates.
Next: Who was I looking for when I found the 1920 Census records.
