Hi Rose, That sounds sensible, but, I don't know if Detroit had a street named that or not in Delray. Seems to me that my Mother was telling me that my Grandparents had lived at the corner of Jefferson and something above a grocery or pharmacy or something. I used to go down in that area to a Catholic Church just off from Jefferson in Delray to visit with a Father Sullivan who used to be the Priest at St. Michael's in Livonia which I attended. I really missed him when he left. <sigh> Anyway, my Mom used to have her good old days stories and as a teenager I could have cared less about what went on back then. Now, I kick myself in the rear for not listening. <VBS> Don't know if you can direct link into this site, but, this is where the image is on line 22. http://www.ellisisland.org/search/shipManifest.asp?pID=101969050061&MID=02132980170934902560& What I am striving for here is to find my Grandparents in the 1910 Census is Wayne Co. Was in hopes of finding out a date of naturalization for him, which isn't listed in the 1920 census in Genesee Co. where they later moved. I have tried every variation of the name and they don't come up, so I thought maybe if I had the street, I could check that out on the census pages and possibly find them under some far out spelling. Maybe I am chasing a dead horse here and this is probably where my Grandmother's father was living and when she married my Grandfather they moved some where else in Delray. Yupper, I am clutching at straws here and going thru the Wayne Co. Census page by page until my eyes cross.

Hi Jan. I tried: http://www.city-data.com/neighborhood/Delray-Detroit-MI.html. The map has the Delray neighborhood highlighted, so searching was easier. I didn't find your streets, but there was a Cotrell St. and a Melville St. and a Solvay St. Maybe you'll have better luck...

That is a cool web site. Thanks. Cotrell and Solvay look promising. Back to searching that census. Jan ----- Original Message ----- From: "D.C." <kinshipmatters@twmi.rr.com> > Hi Jan.
