    2. Wooldridge, Agnes, 28, female, white, keeping house, Illinois
    3. _____, Mary E., 1, female, white, Illinois

    [The enumerator has erroneously reversed the order of his name--it's an odd name--probably in the recopying phase. Hence, it appears that "Mather" is the surname. Supporting this, daughter Mary E. appears in the Wooldridge household in 1880, age 11. Also, just a couple of families before this family is the John McLean Walker family, Agnes's father.]
