11, 1910 Visit of William Jennings Bryan to Gallipolis |
|

| While poking about my family tree things,
and remembering the postcard photo I sent you with William Jennings Bryan
on it, I went back to the 1910 census and found an interesting little
tidbit. One of the people on the porch is Nellie Billings. She
lived at 224 Grape Street in Gallipolis. When
I enlarged the photo on the computer screen, the number on the building
over the doorway is 224. I live in California and
have never been to Ohio, so can't
check these things for myself, but is that the building in the photo ? According
to the 1910 census, several people were living there, almost as if it was
a boarding house, but the residents weren't listed as boarders. |
