Hint for family history research: Look up every address where members of your family have ever been known to live, even in earlier periods - it is amazing how often someone in the family still lives there. Or.. Look up members of your family in this 1929 directory, and then use the address to search in the earlier censuses. This directory will also fill in lots of useful background information about the places where your ancestors lived.
