Interesting address --- also had one on Newberry Street for ArchDiocesan records ..also too for the Pilot which withan 1828 publication start may have some news. Lets hope that archival form is followed and that funds for Diocesan liabilities do not disable.

Hello, Attached is the NARA, Waltham MA press release for the 1930 census opening day - starting at MIDNIGHT! I will capture hardy souls who will give up a Sunday night's sleep for this event on digital stills and movies to replay at the Massachusetts Genealogical Council Annual Meeting and Seminar the following Saturday (see trailer on the press announcement) where we will host Walter Hickey's talk about how to use other resources in lieu of the "wished for" comprehensive index. Please, join us, if you can, in this event of the decade! Sharon Sergeant Program Director Massachusetts Genealogical Council http://massgencouncil.org ======================================================== National Archives and Records Administration NORTHEAST REGION 380 TRAPELO ROAD WALTHAM, MASSACHUSETTS 02452-6399 www.nara.gov/regional For Immediate Release For Further Information: (781) 647-8100 National Archives in Waltham to Release 1930 Census at Midnight on April 1, 2002 Waltham, MA*The National Archives-Northeast Region, located at 380 Trapelo Road in Waltham, will release the 1930 Federal population census for the first time on April 1, 2002. In celebration of this decennial event, The National Archives-Northeast Region in Waltham will OPEN AT MIDNIGHT on April 1 and remain open for research through 4:30 p.m. Monday. National Archives staff and volunteers will be available to assist researchers. Microfilmed copies of the 1930 Federal population census will also be opened for research at the National Archives building in Washington, DC and at 12 other Regional Archives facilities across the nation. The 1930 census consists of 2,667 rolls of microfilm of population schedules and 1,587 rolls of Soundex indexes for 12 Southern states, totaling 4,254 rolls of microfilm. Even though the statistical summaries collected by enumerators are made public shortly after the census is taken, federal law restricts the release of information on individuals and families for 72 years for privacy reasons. The 1930 Census was conducted on April 1, 1930. The 1930 census is the 15th Federal census mandated by the U.S. Constitution, which states "The actual Enumeration shall be made within three Years after the first Meeting of the Congress of the United States, and within every subsequent Term of ten Years, in such manner as they shall by law direct*" There is no index to the 1930 census except for 12 Southern states. A researcher must know the address at which a family resided in 1930 in order to locate a member of their family. The National Archives has provided a collection of City Directories and other finding aids to assist in locating addresses. The NARA facility in Waltham has extensive microfilm holdings and some collections of original records for genealogy research. These collections include Federal population censuses, 1790-1930; Revolutionary War military and pension records; 19th century passenger records for most East Coast United States and Gulf of Mexico ports; some 20th century records for Boston, New York, and Canadian Border Crossings; World War I draft registration records (New England states only); and naturalization records (New England states only). Hours of operation are Monday, Tuesday, and Friday 8:00 a.m. - 4:30 p.m., Wednesday and Thursday 8:00 a.m. - 9:00 p.m., and the first and third Saturday of each month 8:00 a.m. - 4:30 p.m., excluding all Federal holidays. The mission of the National Archives is to ensure, for the Citizen and the Public Servant, for the President and the Congress and the Courts, ready access to essential evidence. =================================================== The Massachusetts Genealogical Council Annual Meeting and Seminar Saturday April 6, 2002 features the "1930 US Census", "Unusual Boston Resources", "Lineage Society applications", and "Photo Identification and Preservation" topics at the Corey Auditorium, Carlisle Public School, Church Street, Carlisle, MA.

For Bill, Brighton = ward 25 in 1902. This may not have always been the same. I expect that you need to specify the year to get an accurate answer. Tom
