I have them in the 1905 NYS census living with my gr-gr grandparents at 102 McDougall St in Brooklyn. At that time they had a 4 year old daughter named Elsie. Erwin's mother was Helene/Helen Boyneburgh Ratz, married to Gustav Arbour 6 June 1874 in Manhattan, NY. I have them in the 1880 US census, along with Erwin's siblings, Helena and Lucy, in this census Erwin is spelled Irving. In the 1900 census, Helen is shown as widowed. After Erwin married my great aunt, they seem to have disappeared, not showing up in later census records. I am trying to trace the Edling family (my grt grandfather's family-Minnie was his sister)forward and connect with any family. If this rings a bell to anyone, please let me know.
