This appears to be Florence & Charles in the 1940 census - https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/K3YK-2V6  It says they were living in the same house in 1935.

On www.fultonhistory.com, there is an obituary for Charles Anderson in a Schenectady, New York newspaper.  If you search for the exact phrase "Florence Cotton Anderson", it should be the only result.  It says he previously owned a tavern.
