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: Boyd’s directory of the District of Columbia (1922); Boyd’s directory of the District of Columbia (1923). Entries from 2 books stand under this name, and nobody has judged yet whether they mean the same person. No claim beyond that has been invented here, which leaves the record not established; tell us if you can change that.
