Bevilacqua Store:
as a child I remember going to the grocery store with my grandparents or with my mom when she would take my grandmother to the store. The store was Bevilacqua's, and at that time it was being run by the kids - particularly Camille, who was the daughter my grandmother was closer friends with, and her brother Charlie. But other kids also worked in store including Concetta and Spike. Concetta went to Beaumont High School and was in my dad's class. The store was located on the corner of Washington Blvd and Ave C, and they lived in the house behind the store. They always gave me a soda or candy and were very nice. The building and house are still there (2011) and the store is now tax preparation place.
The parents were Vincent and Concetta Bevilacqua, and were at 2490 (illeg in census but between 2450 and 2510 Park) in the 1930 census. They were immigrants from Italy in 1897, having lived in the United States for 29 years. The census shows him 56 (1874) years old and she 53 (1877) He states married at age 26 and she at age 23, calculating to 1900, but best guess is they married in Italy, before 1897.
_________________________
Kautland and Eberhardt neighbors:
living next door to my grandparents were the Katulands. The Kautlands were there forever and even after my grandmother died in 1977. Their daughter Hilda Mae married Carroll Dean - he went by "Dean" - Eberhardt, and my mother was friends with her. She had a child Dennis Dean Eberhardt, who was born just before I was - he on 1 Jul 1946 and me the following Sep. 1946. Hilda made a very pretty little blue dress for me when I was still an infant, and mother had my portrait made wearing that little blue dress. I can remember playing with Dennis sometimes when I would go over to my grandparents' house. But we lost touch with them over the years.
Hilda died 7 Jan 1991. Public records show Dean remarried to Helen Carey in 1996. They were both 75.
