Syracuse City Directory for the Year Beginning May 1st, 1892, D. Mason & Co.

[essay from front material, no page number]:

"Some Reasons Why Names Are Not Found in the Directory.

"… Owing to the difficulty which foreigners find in getting their names properly pronounced by the Americans with whom they come in contact, they frequently make very decided changes in them; taking sometimes an English name, which sounds similar to theirs—as Gilbert for Gebhardt, Rice for Reis, Cole for Kohl, etc.; sometimes translating their names as Blanc changed to White, Stein to Stone, etc.

"Sometimes members of the same family spell their names in two or three different ways; as Ballantyne, Ballantine, Ballintine; sometimes men bear two or three names, being known by one in their family, another in the shop, and perhaps still another among their associates.

"To find a name, you must know how to spell it."

The Syracuse Directory, including Solvay, 1928. Vol. LXXI. Sampson & Murdock Co., Publisher, Syracuse, New York, 1928.

"For year ending July 1929"

pages 12 and 13 [excerpts from an introductory essay apparently written by the Syracuse Chamber of Commerce]:

"Its present area is 25 square miles; altitude 397 feet. White population 203,500; colored 1,500. Adult males 68,144; females 67,024. Number of all males, 102,600; females 104,400. Native born population 80.49% of whole. Predominating nationalities are American, Polish, Italian, German and English. ...Where once Syracuse was popularly known as "the Salt City," it now has a world-wide reputation as a leading city in the manufacture of tool steels, automobiles, automobile gears, differentials and transmissions, roller bearings, soda ash and by-products, fine wax candles, agricultural implements, high class china ware, mince meat and powdered milk, quality shoes, typewriters, electrical hardware, electrical washing machines, steam clothes pressing machines, cash carrying and conveying equipment, foundry and machine shop products, boilers and radiators. ...Limestone deposits make the soil of Onondaga county perfectly adapted to ensilage crops, the backbone of dairying. Other crops include apples, berries, celery, lettuce, onions and beans. Because of its importance as an agricultural center, Syracuse is the site of the New York State Fair, which attracts over 265,000 visitors each year. ...There are over 35,000 dwellings, and 37% of the population own their own homes. Apartment houses number over 100, there are ten hotels with a total of 2,000 rooms. Thirty-five theatres have a total seating capacity of 33,000; the largest seats 6,000. There are 101 churches of various denominations.... There are eleven hospitals, with 1,156 beds...."
