But his age in the 1930 Census was 9, putting birth in about 1921, and he did not appear by name with his family in the 1920 Census, enumerated on Jan 21 1920. It is possible, however, that the Anthoney, age 2 months in the 1920 Census, was actually him, that his family afterwards renamed him Garmen, and then five years later had another son who they named Anthony, as indicated in the 1930 Census.
