The entry "5" is clearly in the months column, rather than the years column as for all his siblings. However the birth date from Edna Gapsch, together with ages shown on the 1920 and 1930 census all agree that he would have been 5 years old when he arrived. I must assume the entry in the passenger list was in error.
