My great grandparents, John and Honora King, lived there from 1847 until 1902. (In 1902, widow Honora King left Johnstown to live with her sons in Chicago where she died in 1905) In 1879 the Kings purchased land on Perry Street. The 1880 census shows the address as 2 Perry Street. Directory research (1890 through 1896) indicates that Honora King, widow, is living at 306 S. Perry. Although Honora is not living at 306 S Perry after 1896, she is shown to be the owner of that property in the 1905 Atlas. Question: Did Johnstown have some sort of renumbering of addresses (as Chicago did) wherein 2 Perry Street became 306 S. Perry? For several years before she died, Honora lived at 12 E. Clinton (a few houses from St. Pat's Church) even though she still owned the 306 S. Perry property. Question: Do the old homes at 306 S. Perry and 12 E. Clinton still exist today? If so, is there any way to get pictures? Any help you can give me is very, very much appreciated. Kitty Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
