    1. [NYBRONX] 1910 address & public school nearby
    2. On behalf of a person subscribed to NYC-ROOTS@rootsweb.com: An address of 559 Cortland Avenue, in 1910, apparently no longer exists. According to this person, it appears on the federal census in Bronx County. (Hmmm, there was no Bronx County until 1914, as the Bronx Borough was within New York County until then.) What the person needs is the closest public grammar school to this address. What would the address equivalent be today? Happy Shavuot*, Walter Greenspan Great Falls, MT & Jericho, NY * The 2-day Jewish Biblical Festival of Shavuot (shuh-VOO-oht) commemorates the day when G-d gave the Jewish people the Torah (the Five Books of Moses) following Moses' descent from Mount Sinai, begins 7 weeks from the second Seder of the Jewish Biblical Festival of Passover, which this year will be at sundown on Sunday, June 8 on the civil calendar.
