Birthplace listed as "Canada Eng" This probably refers to the fact that Canada was not an independent nation when Marcella was born.

Also in household a "Warren Hill" age 28, single, born in Minnesota, as were parents, occupation listed as what looks like "Gaurd Elevated" Perhaps a buddy of H Wilson Thompson or old Minnesota friend?
