Also in the household is Iver Wahl, brother, 56, b. NORWAY.
The 1910 census lists a child named Charlotte, age 21 who was not present in the 1900 census. Christine lists 6 children born and 6 living and Andrew and Christine state they have been married 17 years. In addition Charlotte is listed as born in Sweden and parents both born in Sweden yet Andrew was born in Norway. Not sure of the exact relationship of Charlotte to Christine and Andrew.

I'm at a loss regarding the person listed as a brother, age 30. Neither Charlotte or Andrew should have a brother that age. The name is very blobby, the relationship fairly clear and the age very clear. Andrew's brother Iver lived with the family in the 1910 census but he would have been 65 in 1920. Also, the person listed lastly is clearly named "Child" and listed as a 3 year old son!
Census:
1930 census at the Mille Lacs County Poor Farm in Greenbush Township, Mille Lacs, MN shows: Andrew Wahl, inmate, 80, widower, b. NORWAY, parents b. NORWAY, immigrated 1875.
Andrew married Christine PERSON about 1894. Christine was born in May 1863 in SWEDEN; died on 20 Jun 1923 in Mille Lacs Co., MN. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
