You can narrow your search by going to this site and determine what ED
(Enumeration District) to look for. You can then browse the ED page by page
on ancestry.com. This site is also useful for other genealogy research.

Hello Hugh -

I have a '42 draft regstration card for a David Rudinsky saying
someone at 3034 Brighton 3rd St in Brooklyn would always know his
address (Anne Rudinsky). A look for Anne in the '42 phone book doesn't
show her, so I assume she was married. Was hoping to look up the
address in the '30 census and (hopefully) find her married name. -

Mike S. - Thanks; I now have two possible EDs: 1295 and1901. I go to
http://www.stevemorse.org/census/reelframes.html and attempt to enter
the state (NY) so I can activate the query, but the "State" selector
doesn't expand into a drop-down list. I'm assuming that if I could
enter a state, the "ED:" drop-down would allow me to select 1295 or
1901. How do I kick-start this page? Yes I have a subscription to
Ancestry. - Mike H.

LOL what it says


read the descriptions of ancestry databases

as against a full transcription of a census like 1880 or 1881
and the first 1901

Given his age when he filled out the card and the fact that they're
living at the same address, Anna is most likely his wife, which would
explain why you can't find a separate listing for her in the 1942 phone
book. Even if she is his daughter, since they're at the same address,
you wouldn't necessarily find a separate listing for her in the phone
book, because the phone would have most likely been in his name. Now,
if you had a city directory, and she was working, then she might appear
in there, but that wasn't always a given thing, either.

Good luck finding her/them in the 1930 - I tried, using many spelling
variants, and came close, but never quite matched, which makes me think
two things: 1) that David wasn't in the U.S. then, or 2) the enumerator
and/or the indexers really mangled his name.

Cathy - all good points.
Anne was his sister and I don't believe they were boarding together. -
