    3. Hi, My husband, an architect, who taught architectural history in his younger days, says, "Yes" "The styles of those buildings indicates they were built prior to the dates of occupancy you gave." He has no doubts. Congratulations - good find. Now I need to go to Winnipeg and hunt for the buildings my family lived in in 1913. Jayne W. Dye, MD

They just might be the ones that would be photographed now, don't you think?
