Darcy, Thanks much for the reply. The family I am seeking is JAROSCH. I have them in the 1900/1920 census as living on Lloyd St. This I suspect is the NE area of downtown Lou. They immigrated to USA in 1887 and I suspect they could have lived in Shippingport bet. 1887 and 1900. I have some old pics which may show their home at one of these locations. I am also interested in these 2 families with the surname of Kuchenbrod if by chance you ran across something abt. them and Shippingport. You mention directories- perhaps these will help you if you have not already seen them: http://distantcousin.com/Directories/KY/Louisville/1911/ http://www.kentuckycitydirectory.com/Louisville/1859/Book.asp?Page=123 Additionally, I had mentioned the OLD pic with many men on it. Maybe you can check it out on the Jeff. Co/ Rootsweb site: http://www.rootsweb.com/~kyjeffer/pictures/kenny/kennyphotos.html The pic I am referring to is the one titled "Unknown 2". Thanks Much for any additional input and hope you find these few links useful.
