Bessie M. Herring (Dinklage) in 1910 US Census

I have found Bessie M. Dinklage, 23, in the 1910 US Census living with her parents in Fort Scott, Kansas at 1207 Scott Ave. This is listed as the 5th ward of the city, enumeration district 46. Her father is William F. Dinklage, 54, and her mother is Anna R., 52. William and his parents were born in Germany. Anna was born in Illinois, and her parents in Virginia. Bessie has two siblings, both born in Missouri, a sister Lois A, 14, and a brother William K., 12. William F. is employed as a candy maker and Bessie is a teacher at a Business College.

The 1880 US Census lists William F. and his wife, Anna R., living in Fort Scott, Kansas, in the second ward, with no children, and William working as a candy maker.
