The Jeffrieses

The story, address by address

In 1940 the directory lists E Jeffries at 446 East 36th Avenue; the 1940 line is marked *: some member of the family owns the property, to the best of our knowledge (the directory's own mark). The 1940 name section, where each person's work is printed, lists Edward Jeffries there as the householder, a stableman at Canadian Bakeries, with Anna Jeffries, a dispenser for Scotts Cafe, and Gordon Jeffries, who worked for Restmore. In 1940 the directory lists Mrs M D Jeffries at 3223 Findlay Street. The 1940 name section lists Mrs Mary D Jeffries there as the householder.

In 1940 the directory lists H B Jeffries at 1880 Frances Street. The 1940 name section lists Harry B Jeffries there as the householder, a shoe maker. The 1940 name section lists Ray Jefferies at 1105 Haro Street, a cook at The Turf. The 1940 name section lists William Jeffries at 828 Keefer Street.

Mrs M J Jefferies is listed at 4680 West 11th Avenue in 1940; the 1940 line is marked * too.

Today

3223 Findlay, 828 Keefer and 4680 West 11th still have their buildings from before 1946, 828 Keefer on the Vancouver Heritage Register; 446 East 36th (1974), 1880 Frances (2017) and 4549 Osler (1994) have newer buildings, by the City's record; the City no longer lists 1105 Haro and 1160 Seymour, so those buildings are probably gone (inferred).
