If you check the 1930 census and look up the two Paul Abaties and George Abbey, that number in parenthesis with the wife's name matches exactly with the number of their children as shown in the census. With George & Nila Abbey there were no children shown in the census which corresponds with no number after Nila's name in the directory.

Have you looked at the General pages of a Hammond directory to verify what that number represents?
