Hi, Does someone know their districts? In the 1920 census for Milwaukee, what district would 3223 S. 15th Street be found? Thanks, ~Michelle

There was no S. 15th Street in 1920. All the south side numbered streets were Avenues, and they were renumbered in the 1930s. I believe 15th Street would have been 11th Avenue, but I'm not positive. However, my Aunt lived on S. 15th Street just south of Euclid, but on the opposite side of the street of your address. Mary Popovich

I'm looking for an Alfred French, middle initial perhaps E. or F., who adopted a daughter who was born in Milwaukee on November 6, 1907. I've done the first round of searching on www.ancestry.com. In "Wisconsin Marriages, pre-1907" of the vital record index, I find three possibles: Alfred French 05 Apr 1902 Milwaukee County, Vol. 33 Page 0444 Alfred A French 13 Feb 1883 Barron County, Vol. 01 Page 0087 Eugene Alfred French 20 Sep 1894 Douglas County, Vol. 01 Page 0461 The first one fits well. The last one fits if you permute the names. I do not know if he stayed in Milwaukee, or even if he was living there at the time of the adoption. I haven't checked the paper record of this marriage at the Historical Society. What other info might be in this listing? The SSDI index has a few Alfred French with birth dates no later than 1884 (with their address as of their last benefits): 7 Jul 1882 Troy, Rensselaer, NY 17 Mar 1881 Lakeland, Polk, FL 11 Feb 1880 Mcminnville, Yamhill, OR but of course he could have died before Social Security. - John
