| Puzzle about Matilda. In 1900 census she states that she is divorced and Robert is not included in the record. In 1910 and 1920 she states that she is widowed. I cannot find a 1900 or 1910 census record for Robert. He was a farmer in the 1880 census. Did they give up farming and move to Rockford? Did Matilda stay on at the house after the divorce?
