The directories print 14 people named Hogarth at eleven addresses in 1940 in ten of the city's neighbourhoods. No first name or initials tie one address to another: we can't tell if they're one family. The most under one roof: three Hogarths at 3001 Victoria Drive in 1940.

Where the Hogarths lived

Each pin is on its own block, numbered as the households below. One address isn't on today's map, so it has no pin. Today's land, parks, main roads and local areas: City of Vancouver Open Data (Open Government Licence – Vancouver).

Today

724 East 10th, 2065 East 7th, 2786 Eton, 1298 West 10th and 2526 West 5th still have their buildings from before 1946; 3001 Victoria Drive (2003), 6171 Victoria Drive (1985) and 1928 West 36th (1996) have newer buildings, by the City's record; the City no longer lists 1864 East 14th, 5737 Highbury and 6264 Kirkland, so those buildings are probably gone (inferred).

Sources

Henderson's and successor city directories for Vancouver, read by us line by line: the street sections for 1905, 1915, 1925, 1935, 1940 and 1945, and the name section for 1930 and 1940 where we've read it (Vancouver Public Library, BC City Directories). Names are shown through 1945, as printed. Close spellings are grouped, as on the house pages, since a family's name was often spelled differently from one year to the next; one name can still be several families, and we join lines only where the first names or initials agree. Many Chinese, Japanese and other residents weren't named by the canvassers, so they can't be listed by name: their houses' pages say where. More family names under H. Want a name removed? Tell us.
