The Sternes

The story, address by address

In 1940 the directory lists A B Sterne at 3658 Cambridge Street; 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 Alfred B Sterne there as the householder, a mechanic for W C Arnott. The 1940 name section lists Frederick Stearne at 1164 Comox Street, a decorator. The 1940 name section lists Betty Sterne at 526 East 20th Avenue, widow of C A.

In 1940 the directory lists E K Sterne, rooms to let, at 926 Hornby Street. The 1940 name section lists Evan K Sterne there as the householder, a machinist operator at the Province who kept rooms to let.

In 1940 the directory lists C Stern at 3425 McGill Street; the 1940 line is marked * too. The 1940 name section lists Carl Stern there as the householder, an upholsterer, with Violet Stern, a machinist tender at Bertram Paper Products, and Wodam Stern, a seaman.

Today

3658 Cambridge and 1164 Comox still have their buildings from before 1946, 1164 Comox on the Vancouver Heritage Register; 526 East 20th (1989), 1944 Franklin (1979) and 8233 Montcalm (1985) have newer buildings, by the City's record; the City no longer lists 926 Hornby and 3425 McGill, so those buildings are probably gone (inferred).
