[or-roots] need help reading census

[Kith-n-Kin]

This is what I get:
 
Crocker, James R Head m w 64 m1 28 VT CT Can.English General Agent [Gas.] Plants
Agnes T wife f w 52 m1 28 4/3 MA MA MA none
Sidney son m w 25 s IL VT MA Mech Engineer Mfg Concrete
Horace son m w 18 s IL VT MA None
DeBurs Franklin son-in-law m w 28 m1 0 IL Ger/German PA Chemical Engineer Mfg. Evaporation
Florence daughter f w 23 m1 0 IL VT MA None
 
So, James' mother was born in "English Canada" -- as I recall, that's Nova Scotia and neighboring
provinces.
The "Ger German" means Franklin is from Germany and his native tongue is German. You will note, however,
that he does speak English.
Horace is not working.

Hi everyone,

I am trying to decipher what my husband's great grandfather did in 1910.  Would some of you try to
decipher the information.  I would like to know the place of birth of James Crocker's Mother, and the
"general nature of industry", the occupation of Horace (I think he had just graduated from High School),
and the place of birth of Franklin's Father (it was somewhere in Germany).

 

Thanks!  James and Franklin's Father are two of my brick walls.
