<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Figtree3, post: 84853, member: 33&quot;]Great story! Just catching up with this thread. </p><p><br /></p><p>Does anybody have paid access to the fold3 database? I got 2 hits using the spelling Alma Frappia through Google. Both are in fold3, which does not allow viewing much for nonsubscribers.</p><p><br /></p><p>One hit is from a NYC directory from 1889. The Google snippet looks like it says &quot;Frappia Alma artist&quot; followed by an address. Remember that city directories are arranged by last name, so inverted.</p><p><br /></p><p>The other hit was from a Cleveland city directory of 1883 that appears to say &quot;Frappia Alma Miss corset cutter.&quot; The word after &quot;corset&quot; might not be &quot;cutter.&quot; I am using my phone right now and can&#039;t easily flip back and forth between web pages to check my short-term memory. Also, typing on the phone tends to lead to more typos, for which I apologize.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
