Those were both in the 1900 US Federal Census for Minnesota. I am pretty sure they were two different people. Do you know anything about your Euphemia other then what has been gotten from the census records? I agree the age difference is interesting and the first names being the same with the last names nearly the same. Mother in law? Don't think so, because if Euphemia's Letiz husband was about her same age, that would put the Euphemia Leitz at about 13 when she had him. Not impossible, but..... I found in the US Federal Census in 1910, Minnesota, Ramsey Co., St.Paul Ward 11 (note on side says Dayton Avenue) William H Strader, Head, age 48, born in Iowa, parents in Pensylvania Marjorie W Strader, wife, age 30, born in Minnesota, parents Scot-English Harvey W Strader, nephew, age 28, born in Iowa as were parents William Tweedie, father in law, age 66, born in Scot-English as were parents Also US Federal Census in 1910, Minnesota, Ramsey Co., St.Paul Ward 11 is Marjorie Tweedie, mother in law, on what looks to be the last page of that section. It looks like there might be a list at the end of those that were overlooked in the other pages per the ref number 2035 on the right hand side being the same as the entries earlier of Strader, William, Marjorie, Harvey and William Tweedie. 1920 US Federal Census, Minnesota, Ramsey Co., St Paul Ward 11 has William H Strader, Head, age 60 Marjorie W Strader, wife, age 44 William Tweedie, father in law, age 76 Marjorie W Tweedie, mother in law, age 74 ***** The Minnesota Death Index, 1908-2002 shows Marjorie Waldie Tweedie death date as 23 Aug 1929 in Hennepin Co.
