I think any information that Ancestry has for 1910 is based on the original
Soundexing done by the National Archives way back when. More than half of the
states were not Soundexed for that census. New Jersey was one of those.
Unfortunately, the census films for that year are quite bad, many unreadable, so
even the Heritage Quest 1910 index is incomplete (I have found entries they
did not).

Try HQ first, otherwise, the census it self may not be readable.
