Hi Listers, I just had a reminder, while trolling the 1875, Kings Co., Bklyn Ward 7, ED3, that often times, individual enumerators added information to the back pages of their enumeration district or their section of it, showing the addresses of businesses in the area. Looking at these pages even after we've found our people earlier in the district, gives us the opportunity to see what may have existed on the same block as our ancestors, and what they may have looked out their windows on, or walked past on a daily basis. For me, this adds a dimension of my ancestors existence by allowing me to visualize their surroundings, and thus, their lives. I append that information to my family tree file, next to their address for a given year. As most of you know, but perhaps the new-bees don't, the NYC Tax Photos from 1939-41 can show you the home/building your ancestors lived in, if it was standing when the tax photos were taken. They are available for purchase from the City, at: http://www.nyc.gov/html/records/html/taxphotos/home.shtml One last note for those of you with Brooklyn ancestors - books exist, such as "Images of America: Williamsburg", by V. Lederer and the Brooklyn Historical Society, that have many wonderful, historic photos of the streets and neighborhoods our ancestors lived in. While in that particular book there were no photos of my ancestors homes, I did find photos of the streets they lived on, a few doors down or perhaps a block or two away, as well as schools that some of them attended, from the mid to late 1800s. Just being able to look at the road that my great-great-greats walked on to get from place to place, to me, is a gift. Happy hunting! Judy H
