Would this be near 733 North Street or 16 N. 6th and where would b 874 Franklin or 3534 N.Warnock st. These were the addresses that I have on the family between 1890 and 1910. I don't know if you got the email where I said I was looking for the German Luthern Church that they may have attended. or atleast the name so I could locate the records.
