Hi! Does anyone know how I can track some business in Chicago in the early 1900s? I'm researching for a friend whose father worked for John Colby & Sons (furniture makers or upholsters) in Chicago in 1917 and by the 1940s had his own reupholstery business in Chicago. Anywhere I can search to find this kind of information? Any kind of Cook County records that are available to search for licenses and such? Thank you. Marilyn

Ellen, . In 1920 census, Helen GLOMBIK, age 9, is shown as a "ward" of Herman and Annie Gemps in Van Buren, Michigan. In the 1910 census, John and Annie Gemps are shown in Ward 24, Chicago at 2109 Fletcher Avenue. . Could this be your Helen ??? . (SSDI ---------------- HELEN A GLOMBIK 08 Feb 1910 13 Sep 1991 (not specified) (none specified) 360-26-0111 Illinois . Bob

Many thanks to Trisha for providing the census page! Now a new mystery: WHO WERE THE GEMPS? These lists is fabulous. Please let me know how I can help you!

Hi Rose - I know you've searched under just about every rock for these people, but have you tried the Jewish Genealogical Society of NY http://www.jgsny.org/ Maybe they keep a list of their members' research interests. They have some databases on line that you can search. One of them was for the WWI draft. When I searched there, I found a Hyman Hoffman, b. Austria There are also a few listed in the Naturalization index they have on line there. I understand you are looking for death and burial records, but maybe these other records could have a clue that will help find them.

Dear Rose, I think you will get more responses by making a unique Subject Line, possibly like this one. Best Wishes, Dave Witthans P.S.

I tried looking that address up in the reverse directory of 1928-29 on file at the Historical Society website. Couldn't find it under either Colvin or Palmer. I didn't even TRY the Assessor's site, because I figured something had happened to it by 1928-29, since I couldn't find it. THANK YOU BOB!!! I can't believe I made such an error! I'm so lucky to have these lists........... Thanks again, to all those who have helped my searches so far!

Yes, Molly's great to work with! Just to clarify, though, (not sure if my first email didn't go through or if it was confusing)--I checked the death certificate for James this morning and if the information there is correct, the "local cemetery" he is buried in is St. Mary's in Evergreen Park.
