Directory of Householders, Occupants of Office Build- ings and Other Business Places, Including a Complete Street and Avenue Guide


---


--


1950


Including West Haven


Copyright, 1950, by Hill Directory Co., Inc.


In the following list the streets are arranged 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 prac- ticable, in apartment homes the number denotes the number of the apart- ment. In all streets both sides of the street are included in one list. The profession or business of individuals or firms is given only at their respec- tive 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 information during the canvass that the house is owned by some member of the family, but as the publisher cannot and does not guaran- tee the correctness of the information 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.


The & preceding names denotes houses and places of business having télephones.


Figures in parenthesis denote old numbers. (c) denotes colored.


This section includes some listings reading "No Return." In each case the Publishers tried diligently, by various means, to obtain the in- formation for the occupants but were unsuccessful. First, two personal calls were made by an enumerator; next, a double postal card was mailed and the telephone used when possible.


(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)
