• Here are my notes about this document:
  • It appears that at the time of registration (Oct. 16, 1940), Harold and Esther were living at 1938 80th Street, in Jackson Heights, Queens (the same address as in April, 1940 when the census was taken). But this address has been subsequently crossed out 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?
  • Harold is described as 5'10" tall, 170 pounds.
  • Harold's employer is "Board of Education" at "110 Livingstone St., Brooklyn." (See the Wikipedia page about this address.)
