 :) ;D

 WOW Sandra,,I'm overwhelmed,, ::) this is fantastic history for
the tree ::) Archie/B went out to NY in 1925,,his occupation was
always a 'Butler'  he had an uncle on his father's side who was
also one and trained him,, as a young girl in Scot my mother
 told us how they all were amazed at cousin Archie's high-
faluting-ways ,he was older and a bit of a snob growing up,,
Archie had two brother's  Joseph & Frank who followed to NY,
the family all came from humble beginnings in Partick,Glas/Scot.
Their parents James & Mary Bushe Backhouse both born Ireland.

Mary Bushe was my mother's aunt,,,sister of her mother,family
originated from Londonderry & Larne,,NI,,,,,

Last note Sandra, I think the DOB for Jane(Jean)Wilson Backhouse
is 1891, she and Archie were maid/butler for a family in Dumfrieshire
Scot. before emmigrating, they never had any children,I'll check my
files for confirmation,,,

Kind regards;
Janey; :)

Hi Janey,

Can't seem to find anything for 655 Park Avenue, just expensive prices for apartments.
