#unitedkingdom
malcolm katz <malkikatz9361@...>
Many thanks for the replies keep them coming as its
very intresting to know why i do these things. I was also bought up with the worst thing that can happen is a bird flies into your house but it depends what bird!! This is very much lost in the mists of time to me,But i believe it sygnifies also death being bought into the house. Please believe i had a very happy house and modern thinking family,But on the keys on table and birds there was genuine fear and concern. So again if anyone knows this one i find it intresting and going by replies so do other people.

1770 Bay Ridge Pkwy, Brooklyn
#general
Monica Talmor
I need help finding out who manages the building at 1770 75th St. in
Brooklyn, also known as Bay Ridge Parkway. I don't know if it's a condo complex, or private apartments, or rented apartments, but it has multiple residents and I'm trying to find out what happened to a family that lived there in the 1960's. I know about the ACRIS website, and what I found there is that the mortgage on the property was all paid off in 1993, and there is a person's name there, but I'm not sure that's the place to start. Maybe someone on this list lives close to that address and can give me a phone number to contact. Thanks for any help, Monica Talmor Hamden, CT
