Hi Pat and David, There is/was a Jerry St in Westleigh, but I think it had a name change to Northwell St. This was after most of the row houses were torn down. I am not sure when this occurred. My gg grandfather JEREMIAH ALDRED was suppose to have built and owned the houses on the street and it was named after him. My Mother was living there (as a child) in 1910 when her parents "packed up" and came to America. I was hoping to put a little flesh on the bone with anything in the directory. Thanks again.
