Question: Information on William H!. Becker!?
i need some help finding a relatives information!!!
His Name is William H!. Becker I'm not sure when he died but the last time i saw him in the Reading Street Records it was 1970!.
He had a son Edgar W!. Becker
But when i was looking in the street records it said in the years 1921 1923 that he lived with A Mabel E!. Becker and she was a house wife!. Then in 1924 she didnt show up again!.
Then in 1929 there was a Freda Becker!.
I'm trying to figure out who those ladies are and there birthdates!.
We all live in Reading Massachusetts USA and im trying to find out information on William H!. Becker, his son, his wife or those girls, and his parents
William Made a house on Grove Street!. In the street adresses he lived at 35 and 37!.
Any information would be phenominal! If you could also tell me further places i could look this stuff up that would be greatly appreciated!.
Thank you very much
