Is there possibly someone on the list who may have access to the names and addresses from Montreal Street Directories for Britannia St. in Goose Village (Montreal) from around 1885 to maybe 1910. I know that's quite a range, but fortunately Britannia St. was only two blocks long. I'm trying to determine when my Grandfather Patrick Quinn started living there, and for how long. He was a son of a John Quinn who in 1864-65 originally lived on Farm St. - later #14 in 1866-67 - and later again #26. Between my Quinn and Slattery families, they occupied that house on Farm Street for 117 consecutive years. Any help and/or direction re Brittania St. would be most appreciated. -

Also, would someone have access to information as to what year the Immigrants' Grave site was chewed up in the name of progress, as well as the demolishment of the Fever Sheds such that the Streets of Goose Village could be layed out?

Thank you, - Murray Quinn
