To Ryan Jackson, etc.-- it looks like Edward Austin was living at about 3416 West Wells in 1889 + 1890. He was then apparently working for the North Western Mutual Life Insurance Co., still one of America's largest insurance companies ("the Quiet Company"). ..........John (in Chicago) _______________________________________________________ http://www.ancestry.com/search/rectype/inddbs/4749.htm http://search.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/sse.dll?db=1890milwauwi&gs=austin Milwaukee directories, 1889 + 1890 Name Occupation Location 1 Location 2 City State Year Edward A.
