I wonder if this is David in 1950 with wife Elizabegh and two foster daughters ? The occupation certainly fits David.

1950 Murray Pl. Hempstead, Nassau, New York.

David Wilson   50   Head. Born Scotland. Textile Printer. Textile Printing.
Elizabeth Wilson 50 Wife
Barbara Berg 12 Foerd ( Foster Daughter) born New York.
Margaret Berg 11 Foed (Foster Daughter) born New Jersey.
