Estevan Zimmerly in Albuquerque - 1920

I was searching the HeritageQuest Online census database when I came across an interesting fact: My great-grandfather Estevan Zimmerly and his family were living in Albuquerque, New Mexico in 1920!

It appears that they lived on 901 1/2 South Second St., or South Lucent St., maybe - I have difficulting reading it. Their housemates were a Vicente C. Pino and his family.

Estevan's family were: Estevan, head, male, white, 30 yrs old, married; Adelfina, wife, female, white, 27 years old, married; Pablita (my grandmother), daughter, female, white, 9 years old, single; Guadalupe, daughter, female, white, 7 years old, single; "Gertruditas" (Gertudes), daughter, female, white, 5 years old, single; and Estevan, son, male, white, 3 9/12 years old, single. Estevan is listed as a laborer at a saw mill, while his housemate Vicente Pino is a merchant. I think that the house probably belonged to Vicente Pino since he was a merchant and because Estevan didn't live in Albuquerue for very long. Maybe the store that the Pinos owned was in the house.

I'll have to check this information against the Albuquerque city directory. I'll probably go to the library tomorrow to check it out.
