Margaret Seger and Peter Jung - Census Reports

NOTE: This information is speculative. Many of the details on these census reports match information that we have about Margaret Seger and Christian Seger, siblings.

Although Christian Seger is listed as a boarder it would seem unusual to have a non-family person living in the household for over twenty years. Christian Seger died 18 Jan 1907.

In 1920 Anna E Jung, age 34, widowed, & a niece {of Bernard or Rose??}, is living in the household of Rose Seger, widow of Bernard Seger. This would indicate a connection between the Jung and Seger families. Does anyone have additional information that would prove or disprove a family relationship??
