Directory of Householders, Occupants of Office Buildings and Other Business Places, INCLUDING A Complete Street and Avenue Guide


Including: Bragtown, Hope Valley, Joyland, Rockwood, Rollingwood, Sherron Acres and Tuscaloosa Forest.


1956


Copyright, 1956, by Hill Directory Co., Inc.


In the following list the numbered streets are arranged in numerical order fol- lowed by the named streets in alphabetical order, the intersecting streets being shown. The number of each building on the street is given in numerical order, and opposite the number is placed the name of the occupants or houseowner or tenant. In the business blocks containing offices the occupants are shown by room numbers where practicable, in apartment homes thenumber denotes the number of the apart- ment. In all streets both side of the street are included in one list. The profession or business of individuals or firms is given only at their respective place of business; to find occupation of others refer to Alphabetical List of Names.


-The symbol @ following a householder's name indicates that we have received in- formation during the canvass that the house is owned by some member of the family, but as the publisher cannot and does not guarantee the correctness of the infor- mation furnished, nor the complete absence of mistakes no responsibility for errors can be or is assumed, nor can the publisher furnish further information than that shown.


Telephone numbers, as supplied to us on our canvass are shown opposite names. Figures in parenthesis denote old numbers.


(The numerals that appear at right edge of columns, ahead of street descriptions and some street intersections, are merely for the guidance of the publishers, and have no other significance. )


(This section includes some listings reading "No Return. " In each case the Pub- lishers tried diligently, by various means, to obtain the information for the occu- pants but were unsuccessful. First, two personal calls were made by an enumer ator; next, a double postal card was mailed and the telephone used when possible. )
