Diane-- your offer to put these Milwaukee street address translations on a website is a very generous one-- and would be of great value to genealogists. So hopefully this sort of thing proves feasible-- and hopefully manuscript size and copyright laws don't prove to be obstacles. I'm assuming you and other WiMilwau listers are referring mainly here to the City of Milwaukee street address changes that took place in or about 1930. For researchers who are also working in a much earlier time period, I thought I'd also point out that a very major (but less well known and less well understood) revision of Milwaukee street addresses took place toward the end of the Civil War-- on 1 Jan 1865, as then demanded by US postal authorities in Washington, DC. There seems to have been no real attempt by the Milwaukee's Central Library (or others) to translate 1864 addresses to 1865 addresses. But armed with the 1863 and 1865 Milwaukee directories (none was apparently published in 1864), it's not too difficult for one to make reasonably accurate street address translations .............John {in metro Chicago) _____________________________________________________________________________ Subj: [WIMILWAU] ref: Street address changes - response to Mary and John in Racine Date: 1/4/2007 11:51:19 P.M. Central Standard Time From: dianne710@comcast.net To: wimilwau@rootsweb.com Mary, that's a really good idea. Can someone there verify whether or not it's copyrighted material? If it is proven certain that it isn't copyrighted (and assuming it isn't so huge that I don't have room!) I'd be delighted to put it on my website for all to access. If it IS huge perhaps a zip file would condense it enough to make it possible. Can anyone estimate how many pages it might be? ...... _____________________________________________________________________________
