Hi Linda
In this case, looking at the poor copy of the census on Ancestry, one has to resort to other sources to
determine who is listed with Adam Leberwurst. Going to the 1901 City Directory, the only person living with Adam, male and of working age, is Bartholomew Leberwurst, living at 20 Centennial St. Since all children of Adam are minors at this point, they would not be listed in the directory. So, with the limited information somewhat readable on the census, with the discrepancy of the occupation as camera maker in 1901. However in the 1900 directory his occupation matches the census, woodworker/carpenter. In the 1900 directory he has taken on or someone has given him the name of Lartotomoeis.
I just wanted to throw in my bit.
Guenter
