1900 US Census for Machinaw, Taziwell Co, IL

Note either the marriage date is wrong (1891) or Ida is a second wife. I favor the latter.

Emma Remus 6 may 1894

Note Gustave Remus is listed as C Remus. This is most likely that he was also known as Christopher Remus. Illinois state marriage records show Christopher marrying Ida Schnellbacker on March 10 1891 in McLean Co, Illinois.

It is very likely Gustav married the daughter of neighbors Peter and Katie Snellbacker as in 1910 William Snellbacker was living with them and listed as a brother in law. Ida's birth date was after Peter and Katie Snellbacker marriage date and in the right state IL.
