I read the same one Eliz did and considering she was born around 1855-56 it's unlikely she immigrated in 1855, what was her husband's name and if we can find her on the 1910 or 1900 census it should give us a better read on what year should have been there. But considering she was still an alien your date seems more accurate if she had come any earlier she or her husband would have been naturalized.

Am I still subscribed I can't believe we haven't had any postings in the last three days. Alice Fluegge

What elementary, junior high, or high schools would a student living in Evanston attended during 1910-1918, even if the school no longer exits? Would these schools have been a part of the Chicago Public School system then? What corporation would have their records? What would school have been like in those days? Thank you for any insight into the area. SHusk Indiana

All, I have a picture dated September 1913 of 3 boys and a girl sitting on a porch - the rest of the caption states "Chicago 506 W. 61st St." The picture is from a family album the Pauline Pahlke Friedland family passed down. I think they are members of the Helen Pahlke Schuster's family (Pauline's sister). There are many other pictures that appear to be taken in Chicago, but only this one had a notation. I have checked the 1910 and 1920 census records for the members I know of in the Schuster family and they lived on Princeton Avenue, which appears to be near 61st street today. However on the census form it looks like they lived near 27th Street. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. This is the first picture I've ever tried to reserach. Thanks Pattie Pahlke Schultz

Thank you very much to Robin and "Dem Bones" for digging and locating these elusive records. I don't know how you located the names since it is so different in the census, but thanks for your efforts. I believe that is my family!

Hi Paul; Vincent was using the name William in 1920--I found him using that name in the census and in the WWI Draft registration, ca. 1917, living at 1640 Brigham. In 1929 the Polk Criss-cross directory has a John Mocarski (wife Helen), and Victor Mocarski (wife Helen) living at the address on Brigham--but Vincent and Anna weren't living at their 1930 address on Pierce yet either. There was a Vincent Misukanis in Cleveland, OH in 1942, and I found a Matthew Stankevicius in NY in 1920. Hope this stuff helps.

To Bonnie: 1998-04-04 Chicago Tribune (IL) LINUS OWEN SMITH Edition: Chicago Tribune Linus Owen Smith, 87, who used a lifetime of business skills in volunteer service after his retirement, died Thursdayin West Palm Beach, Fla., under the care of the Hospice of Palm Beach County. He had recently suffered a severe stroke, said his wife, Nancy Smith. Mr. Smith, who had lived in Glencoe and Glenview, was vacationing in Atlantis, Fla., when he was stricken. Born in Chicago, Mr. Smith graduated from New Trier High School in Winnetka and Carleton College in Northfield, Minn. He was a fighter pilot during World War II. Mr. Smith was the owner and president of T.F. Washburn Co. in Chicago, a manufacturer and distributor of chemical ingredients used in the manufacture of paint.

He retired in 1969 and turned his energies to the Executive Service Corps of Chicago, a volunteer, nonprofit organization that matches retired executives with nonprofit companies so the firms can benefit from the knowledge and advice of the retirees. In addition to his wife, Mr. Smith is survived by two daughters, Sharon Farny and Barbara Carlson; a son, Dwight; a stepdaughter, Jane Lamberson; 12 grandchildren; and 11 great-grandchildren.

Thanks you all for the info. I don't think that the New York Matthew is my Matthew. I have never heard of him being married or having children but I will run this by my mom and see what she thinks.
