Hi Caroline,
I personally think that the census taker was confused!I have seen MANY censuses where where a person was born was totally incorrect!It goes along with the misspelled names and wrong (on occasion) ages.I feel that the earlier censuses had the birth places correct, or closer than Oklahoma and Germany!Take everything you see on a census 'with a grain of salt'.Best way to 'prove' is to get birth certificates and/or social security application copies.Those 'usually' have the correct information.
