  • Walter Paul Hehner and Minnie Nebel appeared in the US federal census of 1 January 1920 in Manhattan, New York, at 141 West 67th Street. Other members of the household included Doris Estelle Hehner, Magdalena Karl and Catherina Karl. Also in the household is Charles Hahnen, age 26, employed as a chauffeur and identified as "brother."
