However, I spoke to Mary, born 1926, last week who said they were definitely living in Detroit 1930. She was so sure of the addresses as well, but could not say which address they were at during the time of the census. Are there directories that list those addresses back then, that name the residents of those 2 addresses? Perhaps those names could be checked on the census and hopefully find my Twork family. I am guessing that these addresses were boarding houses with many people at the same address. Thanks for your help and I look forward to any receiving any more information you can give me. regards Margaret Rose Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
