Hi, I can see "Paradis" ........................ That's a nice "P", I thought it was a "D" at first glance, I also thought about Parasis.

Yes that was the obvious thought but nothing has materialised on US Census.

Occupation 350 is  Retired from Employment in the 1911 census. Surely as this is the sister of a known person it would be possible to get a clue from elsewhere? However, Paradis is a French surname.
Southern or Southan [Hereford , Monmouthshire & Glos], Jenkins, Meredith and Morgan [Monmouthshire and Glos.], Murrill, Damary, Damry, Ray, Lawrence [all Middx. & London], Nethway from Kenn or Yatton. Also Riley and Lyons in South Africa and Riley from St. Helena.

350 does not refer to the occupation - the address the person was going to was 350 Pennsylvania Avenue Brooklyn New York.

Did you tell us this was an American record?

Yes, reply 3 said "nothing materialised on US census"

Unfortunately - Doesn't appear to be any Brooklyn City Directories for the period - 1914 - 1932 -  not published
