325 Raymur Avenue

In the 1905, 1910, 1915, 1920, 1925 and 1930 city directories, of the nine we've read for Raymur Avenue.

No one stays from one directory to the next: Love (no first name printed), a teamster, in 1905; Mary Dalton, widow of J Dalton, in 1910; Leo Jessup in 1915; and two more households by 1925. At 325 Raymur Avenue in 1930, the householder is Patrick Forrest, a logger. The later directories we've read, 1935 to 1945, list Raymur Avenue but not 325.

The house today

Not one of the nine addresses the 1930 directory lists on the 300 block of Raymur Avenue is on the City's list today, so the building at 325 is probably gone (inferred).
