Research notes for Jessie

After Francis died in 1918, Jessie married Henry Meyer (1873-1948) in 1924. There were no children from this marriage.

RE: 1940 Census record.
I think I found it here. Everything seems okay except DOB for both Henry and Jessie. However, both ages are circled on the record and, it looks like, filled in LATER. Just seems like this could be it.
