1 person found this helpfulDear Mr. Gonzalez,
Thank you for posting your request on History Hub!
We suggest that you search for your grandfather Ramon Gonzalez residing at the Denver address through these local websites:
We also suggest that you use Ancestry’s City & Area Directories to find a record of him residing at the address noted in your request. There may be a fee for using Ancestry. Instead, you may view these records online at one NARA's facilities for free via a NARA PC. For the nearest NARA location, please consult our web page at https://www.archives.gov/locations/. Also, some of the images from Ancestry are available for free on Family Search at https://www.familysearch.org/en/.
We hope this is helpful. Best of luck with your family research!

Re: Seeking Verification of Address in 1950 Census
Keith Northington Oct 30, 2019 7:30 AM (in response to David Gonzalez)Contact a local library to see if they offer access to an ancestry.com website. In it there is a database called "U.S. City Directories, 1822-1995" and you can do a search using the name Ramon Gonzalez and specifiying that you want to search for Denver, CO, and you will see a page of results showing various Gooyears of Denver city telephone directories with a listing for him (1945, 1947, 1948, 1951--2 different 1951 directories), but there is no directory for 1950, so I can only assume that a directory was not published that year.
If you can print out a copy of that page in the city directory, I hope it will help with your application.
Good luck with your application--what field of study are you going to pursue, or what will you be majoring in?
I will post a link to one of the 1951 directories that shows Ramon Gonzalez living at 1020 9th St. here:
If the link does not work, you will have to find an ancestry.com database on your own.
