Dear List Members,
In census records where kinship is indicated, is there any way to 
distinguish between a niece or nephew of an husband or wife? For 
example, in the hypothetical listing below for the 1920 US Census, can 
one tell if Mary is related to John or to Mary?
John Doe    Head        b 1877
Jane        Wife        b 1887
Sonny       Son         b 1915
Dotty          Daughter     b 1918
Maby Related Niece      b 1893
Rita               Gt. Neice    b 1919,
Thanks for the collective knowledge and wisdom you so generously share,
Byron Bowman,
