I am looking for info on my grandfather Timothy Sullivan. He lived in Brooklyn on 17th Street and managed a Hay & Feed Co. which was located either on Baltic St or Hamilton Ave. He was married to Margaret O'Connell and had 3 sons; Albert, Francis and James.
I believed the Hay and Feed Co. was owned by James J. and Edward Sullivan, the relationship to my grandfather is not clear. They also lived on 17th Street in 1920. James J. lived on Prospect Avenue in 1910.
