The story, address by address

In 1940 the directory lists W H Stuckey at 1274 East 11th 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 William H Stuckey there as the householder, a baker. In 1940 the directory lists W H Stuckey, a baker, at 1284 East 12th Avenue. L R Stuckey is listed at 76 West 52nd Avenue in 1940; the 1940 line is marked * too.

Today

1274 East 11th (2017) has a newer building, by the City's record; the City no longer lists 1284 East 12th and 76 West 52nd, 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 S. Want a name removed? Tell us.
