Thanks-- that is where I though 9th would be. So they would be in the St.
Boniface area. Helen

I thought previous question was about renumbering , not renaming.
There may have been more than one renumbering and but one around 1920.
One thing to do is follow your family and a group of the neighbors
through several years of city directories. If they all seem to move it
was probably and renumbering. One city directory around 1920 has new and
old numbers. Willard has the city directories, mostly on microfilm.
9th and Franklin would be 2 blocks west of the bridge. Bridge is between
7th and 8th, but there also several sets of railroad tracks in the
area. 9th is about where the Red Bird gas station was located.

Franklin the 9th Avenue, Independence. This would be in the Lasmaco area
and I don't know if 9th is east of west of the Pigeon Bridge on Franklin.
But was that area originally called Independence?
