Dianne,

Richmond city directories are available on microfilm at the Library of VA.
You can probably get them through an Interlibrary loan or through your local
family history center.

Good luck.

<< Hello List members,

I'm still searching for any info on my African-America paternal

grandparents, Lucinda Averett Morton and Ernest Morton. My father, Charles

Edward Morton was born to them on December 9, 1909 in Richmond, VA. Lucinda

was reportedly half Choctaw (no confirmation there yet) and lived in an area

of Richmond called Church Hill.

I have been unable to find them via census records from that period, am

hoping someone has a directory from that time period or other info. They are

my most elusive family members, and definitely a tough brick wall! >>
