I have an address for someone in 1930. I"m subscribed to Ancestry so I have some access to the '30 Census How can I go from an address to seeing who lived there? - Mike

all name index
work off line with old directories and a local historical society or library

You can narrow your search by going to this site and determine what ED (Enumeration District) to look for. You can then browse the ED page by page on ancestry.com. This site is also useful for other genealogy research.

Hello Hugh -
I have a '42 draft regstration card for a David Rudinsky saying someone at 3034 Brighton 3rd St in Brooklyn would always know his address (Anne Rudinsky). A look for Anne in the '42 phone book doesn't show her, so I assume she was married. Was hoping to look up the address in the '30 census and (hopefully) find her married name. - Mike

Mike S. - Thanks; I now have two possible EDs: 1295 and1901. I go to http://www.stevemorse.org/census/reelframes.html and attempt to enter the state (NY) so I can activate the query, but the "State" selector doesn't expand into a drop-down list. I'm assuming that if I could enter a state, the "ED:" drop-down would allow me to select 1295 or 1901. How do I kick-start this page? Yes I have a subscription to Ancestry. - Mike H.

Given his age when he filled out the card and the fact that they're living at the same address, Anna is most likely his wife, which would explain why you can't find a separate listing for her in the 1942 phone book. Even if she is his daughter, since they're at the same address, you wouldn't necessarily find a separate listing for her in the phone book, because the phone would have most likely been in his name. Now, if you had a city directory, and she was working, then she might appear in there, but that wasn't always a given thing, either.
Good luck finding her/them in the 1930 - I tried, using many spelling variants, and came close, but never quite matched, which makes me think two things: 1) that David wasn't in the U.S. then, or 2) the enumerator and/or the indexers really mangled his name.
