Where the Huttons lived

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

Today

220 Alexander, 1065 Bute, 850 East 13th, 778 East 18th, 2540 Mackenzie, 4370 Perry, 6307 Sophia, 4271 West 11th, 946 West 15th and 1967 West 57th still have their buildings from before 1946; 1319 East 27th (1983), 3288 East 29th (2009), 766 East 38th (1984), 39 East 60th (1975), 6140 Fleming (1983), 6571 Sherbrooke (2011), 4597 West 14th (2008) and 1994 West 4th (1953) have newer buildings, by the City's record; the City no longer lists 1435 East 27th, 2171 East Hastings, 8914 Hudson, 3949 Knight, 1079 Melville, 2075 Nelson, 1347 Pendrell, 2002 Robson, 1414 West 70th, 3129 West Broadway and 1799 West King Edward, so those buildings are probably gone (inferred); for 712 Richards, its page says what we could and couldn't match to today's buildings.

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.
