Hi folks, I am having troubel with an old address book. I am guessing the date is ca 1900. I have several families that I am trying to track down. Two which have addresses that do not sound familiar to me are: Elsie, Eva & Anna G McMahon of 11 Willow Street, New Center. William Waland (could be Wayland) of 32 Sheredow Street, Jamaica. Any help with these two addreses? The relative who wrote these entries was elderly and not a very accurate speller. Regards, Al Rose Please visit my GEDCOM posted at URL: http://worldconnect.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?db=butchrose

I hope this helps some. Maureen
