    Two machine readings of this page disagreed on line 1, and nothing has chosen between them — the words above are one of the two readings, not an established one.

Named in 2 books printed between 1920 and 1923. Read by software from scans of those pages, not yet checked by a person against the page. Entries from 2 books stand under this name, and the software judged them likely the same person. Tell us if that is wrong and we will split the record.

Details and sources

Record note

Nothing on this site confirms this record beyond what one or more sources state, and that is the whole basis for it: Baltimore city directory for the year commencing … : containing an alphabetical list of business firms and private citizens, a directory of the city officers, terms of court, churches … also a revised street directory, and a complete classified business directory … of all trades, professions a (1920); Polk’s Baltimore city directory : containing an alphabetical list of business firms and private citizens, a directory of the city officers, terms of court, churches … also a revised street and avenue guide … a buyer’s guide and a complete classified business directory which contains a full and c (1923). Entries from 2 books stand under this name, and the software judged them likely the same person. Tell us if that is wrong and we will split the record. No claim beyond that has been invented here, which leaves the record not established; tell us if you can change that.

The books behind this record

This record draws on 2 sources, both read from machine text. The count weighs how well each source was read, not just how many are cited. A stack of half-read sources does not outweigh one page read properly.
