The address spans two pages.
The household is on sheet 25B. The street address carries from the preceding sheet; it should not be treated as a standalone reading from these rows alone.
08 / Catherine’s household · Bridgeport · 28 April 1910
A different address.
A life still unfolding.
Her brother’s arrival was one chapter.
Catherine McPadden Kelly’s life carried on.
In 1910, the census finds her family at 513 Gregory Street. Six names appear together. Behind them lie ten years that no single page can hold.

Michael is not listed in this household. His absence from this page does not tell us where he was or why he was no longer recorded at home.
The two James Kellys are father and son. Neither is Catherine’s brother, James McPadden.
A record is not a whole life
Not every difference
is an answer.
The later census gives a new address, a different occupation and a changed household. It does not tell us the route of the move, what the family earned, or how they felt about these changes.
Some fields disagree.
The two older sons’ recorded Irish birthplaces and the immigration fields conflict with the 1900 census and the 1888 marriage. The children-born and children-living totals also differ between returns. We preserve the reported numbers rather than inventing events to reconcile them.
Work changes on the page.
“Coachman” in 1900; “private-family chauffeur” in 1910. These are the recorded occupations—not proof of the same employer, a particular vehicle or a promotion.
