Whose child is Russel?
All Peter's children are marked single. He has had 4 children, all living. The fourth must have been born after the 1880 census, and thus can't be Russel's father. Russel's mother was born in OH, so he can't be from Letha. Albert is too young to have had a child in 1892. That means either Charles was the father, or Russel is an adopted child. (Or he is Letha's son and they lied about the places.)
Given that the relation is given as "grandchild" rather than "grandson", I think Russel was adopted.
