Karen and Carla, Don't know if this is any help, but I did a search on the addresses in the Chicago Tribune. I didn't come up with anything for 514 W Chicago Ave, but for 1817 N Sawyer I did find out that on Oct 18, 1951 a Mr and Mrs. Chris Larsen was living at that address - they had a son in Korea. Then on June 2 1968, a James Wilcox age 17 was listed at that address. It was a 2 flat, frame building that by 1974 had been abandoned and was being listed for sale through HUD in a  bulk sale for $7700.00. On July 17 1975 it was mentioned in a story about Logan Square (that's the neighborhood) as one of several homes being renovated.

Thank you so very much we are ever so grateful.
