Thanks Flip, its OK, I should have said I have the image, just wanted another opinion on the letter

x

I'll PM you the image, but the initial is H.

Thanks Margee, youre right, Ive just found 'that' Jones in 1930 with his parents :-(

I think the initial is definitely an H, Gins.

As I go round and round New Jersey, I keep coming back to this man

Would someone have a look and see if the initial for his second name could be an 'R' please


Mo, how near or far is the above place to Plainfield?

Yeah thats him Mo....a war photographer


I thought about him being fostered but he used the name Jones on his death, well he didnt but whoever buried him did!

I was so hoping he was with his anut Blanch but nope :-(

Ouch,Gins. He's a tough one. Besides the question of looking for George/Ronald and the Jones issue,there's also the possibility he could be fostered out with a different name. I know you know this-just making excuses.....

I guess this is him?

Name: George R Jones
Birth Year: 1925

It doesn't state WHERE he enlisted and I don't like that "US at large" indication at all.

Help please..........thank you :-D

Aww....thanks Mo


I have to do some work but will have a look through the details that you have posted

Gins-I'm no expert on that area (obviously!!) but it looks like Blanche was coming home to 240 3rd Street Dunellen,NJ in 1933. Maybe the Washington Ave address was a shop of some kind?

Anyway,I looked through (Middlesex County NJ):
12-15 DUNELLEN BOROUGH BOUNDED BY (N) GREEN BROOK; (E) JEFFERSON AV; (S) 1ST, MADISON AV, 2ND; (W) BOROUGH LIMITS

with no joy. Doesn't mean they weren't there-just means I didn't see them.

Thanks Chris


I as never screamed patiently ;-)

(nothing helpful, but noticed a Blanche Blazek, going out to New York 1933, last UK address, 106, Beavercotes Rd, Firth Park, Sheffield. housewife)


(on that info. will leave Gins, screaming patiently for 1940!)

Mo, do you know which County the above address (Previous post) is in please?

Jonesey, thank you

He's here in 1940 but I cant seem to find him on the census....I did look when it was first released but had no luck.

I got a bit confused with the old workings of the search facility :-S

What the heck does the h 240 3d mean?

Edit: So, that must be house 240 district 3? So whats the 104!

Gin,

Familysearch seem to be the most advanced amongst the bunch for New Jersey in the 1940 US census but even they have only completed 23% so far.

If you know exactly where your Blazek family might be hanging out you might be lucky.
