Does the relationship marked with yellow look like "Foster Child?"

What is the last name of the child - marked in yellow?

I have included the entire Census for handwriting comparison.

Thanks for your help!

    Yes to foster child.

    I think the surname is PINSON. The tail of the check mark on the line below has drifted into the space for that surname.

    For future reference, it's usually better to include the URL of the record. Sometimes we need to view adjacent pages to get a better view of the handwriting.
