| We wrote to the NYC Archives for a birth record which they were unable to
| locate. We need more suggestions. Can anyone advise us?
|
| Lucie J. Durant, age 1, is listed on the 1880 Census. Parents were
| Gouverneur and Carrie Durant, ages 30 and 26, respectively. He worked as
a
| stevedore. They lived on 3rd Avenue around 142nd or 143rd St. or 149th
St.
| (The record is not completely legible.)
|
| The Archives searched birth records for Manhattan for 1879 and 1880. Is
| there somewhere else we should inquire? Was this area part of Manhattan
in
| 1880?
|
| We live in Oklahoma and aren't very familiar with NYC.
|
| Lucie was David's gr-grandmother.
|
| Thanks for any advice or help.
