Some addresses of Harold Rosenthal and his family
1902:
- 63 Stanton St., Manhattan: This is the Lower East Side address given by Joseph Rogall, who was probably the brother of Abram Rogall (Abraham Rosenthal) [i.e., he was probably Harold's great-uncle] when he picked up Sore Rogall (Sarah Rosenthal) and her children from Ellis Island (according to the temporary detention record.

1905:
- 48 Cannon Street, Manhattan: This address on the Lower East Side is where Abraham and Sarah Rosenthal [Harold's grandparents] were living in 1905 with their children, including 14-year-old Albert (Alter) [Harold's father]. This part of Cannon Street no longer exists; the web site "Forgotten New York" explains that "Cannon Street, now just an echo of its former self, exists as an alley between Delancey and Broome west of Lewis Street. It has survived because it faces a public school that was not razed in 'slum clearances' that began in the 1930s."

- 33 Forsyth Street, Manhattan: In 1905, 22-year-old Henry Brock (Naomi's brother) [Harold's uncle] was boarding with a family named Borenstein on the Lower East Side.

1906:
- 223 Madison Street, Manhattan: Naomi Brock [Harold's mother] immigrated around in 1906, when she was about 15 years old. The passenger records for the ship on which she arrived indicate she was going to stay with her brother-in-law Hyman (Charles) Rothschild, at this address on the Lower East Side. (Presumably she must have had a sister who lived there too?) It is also the address given by Naomi's older brother Henry in his 1907 declaration of intention. Perhaps Naomi, Henry, their sister, and their brother-in-law all lived together?

1909:
- 388 Woodward Avenue, Saint Paul, Minnesota: 18-year-old Albert [Harold's father] lived at this address in 1909 when he submitted a declaration of intent to become a citizen.

1910:
- 5 Goerck Street: In 1910, 20-year-old Albert Rosenthal [Harold's father] was listed on the census form as living here along with his parents (Abraham and Sarah) and siblings. According to the website "Lost New York": "Goerck Street was the epicenter of Lower East Side tenement living in the early days of the 20th Century." And the website "NYC Streets: A Guide to Former Street Names in Manhattan" describes Goerk as "A street in the Delancey Farm Grid, formerly running north from Grand Street and continuing one block beyond East Houston Street to East 3rd Street. It was renamed Baruch Place in 1939. Most of it has since been demapped."
1915:
- 270 Saratoga Avenue, Brooklyn: Henry Brock and Leah (Rosenthal) Brock were living here in at the time of the 1915 census (the year after they got married) and also in 1917 when Henry registered for the draft. Henry was Naomi (Brock) Rosenthal's older brother, and Leah was Albert Rosenthal's older sister. Albert Rosenthal was also living at this address in 1916 when his wife Naomi (Brock) Rosenthal and his son Harold arrived from Poland. So presumably Albert had lived with his sister Leah and brother-in-law Henry while Naomi was in Poland.

But this address was subsequently crossed out on the draft registration card and replaced with 149-06 61st Road, Flushing, Queens. (Perhaps Harold and Esther moved after Harold had registered for the draft, at which point he reported his change of address?)
