Thanks Ronya, Looking thru a rootsweb co. connection I have found the street names of Webb City. There is a Prosperity and a Prospect in the town as wall as a Prairie Flower Rd. I don't know which one the census taker is working on but right now I'm guessing they abbreviated the street name. As a result I have put in a request to the Webb City library genealogy section to see if they have a copy of the 1910 census. Maybe if they have a copy theirs will be clearer and they can tell me the street name. Thanks much for your response, Roberta Hall ----- Original Message ----- From: "Liaphaylen" <liaphayle@yahoo.com> To: <MOJASPER-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Saturday, October 26, 2002 9:18 PM Subject: Re: [MOJASPER] Webb City Street name info. > Roberta, > > Going west from Main St in Joplin, you have Joplin St, > Wall, and Pearl.
