Part 658d – Brunhammer Doherty Genealogy – The Great-Grandaunts Doherty – 1940 US Census – Wilmington, Delaware

06 April 2012

Good Day,

Good news. This morning Ancestry.com has indexed the 1940 US Census for the States of Delaware and Nevada. And we need Delaware…

Immediately, and this time with the correct spelling, I discovered the Census Page from Enumeration District 4-21 for the five Doherty great-grandaunts: Greta C., Frances G., Mary T., Katherine, and Elizabeth.
Their house was at 911 West Eighth Street in Wilmington, in New Castle. Five maiden grandaunts all living together; all great-grandfather Gerald Doherty’s elder sisters.

The address of the big house was at 911 West Eight Street… It is no longer there. Today it is a part of the I-95 embankment, overpass, and exit ramp. See the inserted image from Google maps.

Here is the image of the 1940 US Census Page Sheet No. 4-B and dated April 3, 1940.

And now to continue my search and genealogy work.

Enjoy,

Jim
