I believe that I do have some information on your grandfather Aloysius "Richard" Poole. The Lawrence, Masachusetts City Directories for 1924-27 list Richard Poole and his wife Mary at the folowing street addresses: 32 Newton Street (1924), 17 Tewksbury Street (1925), and 60 Kingston Street (1926-27). The addressses are all within a block or so of where my grandfather Frank lived, as well as his brother William. The Pooles all lived in the same neighborhood. My mother and father's first home was on Kingston Street.. My grandfather died in 1932 (I never knew him or my Grandmother Anna, who died in 1930). his obituary mentions a brother William of Lawrence, MA, a brother Richard of Pennsylvania, a brother Joseph of England, and three sisters, Margaret, Elizabeth, and Mary Poole all of England. The directories for 1928 and thereafter do not list Richard or Mary, so they probably moved to Pennsylvania in late 1927 or in 1928.spouse: >Watson, Hannah (*1876 - 1932)From a May 3, 1998 e-mail message from Bill Poole, silmaris@@xenthenia.com
