In the 1925 NY State Census he is at 592 7th Avenue in Brooklyn. His age is listed as 53 years and occupation a Carpenter.
In the 1920 census he shows up as living in Brooklyn at 320 Twenty Second Street, renting.

The enumeration was done on January 14th and he lists his age as 49.
In the 1915 NY State Census he is at 262 45th St in Brooklyn. Looks to be an apt. His age is listed as 45 and his occupation a carpenter..
In the 1910 census he shows up at 641 Sixth Avenue.
He lists his occupation as a Bartender in a saloon.
It appears and he lists his age as 39 and they say they've been married 9 years. Assuming they answered precisely that means they were married some time between May of 1900 and May of 1901.
In the 1900 census he is living at 355 Twenty First St, Brooklyn in the household of Harry H Webb. He is listed as a brother in law and he is single. That makes Harrys wife, Elisabeth his sister.

He is living with his mother, Eliza his sister Mary and Harry Webb and Harrys wife Lizzie (aka Elizabeth, Johns sister) and their son Joseph.
