I question whether the Paul Alvaldez listed in the 1900 census as Henry Glismann's son is really his son. The child would have been born only a year before Henry married his wife Serena, and we have no evidence of a previous marriage for him. Henry was born in Germany. Alvaldez sounds like a Spanish name. Further research is needed.
