Robert, h 182 Tenth Ave. 1884 New York City Directory has an entry for Jane Peel, wid Robert, 144 Seventh Ave. 1890 New York City Directory has an entry for Jane Peel, wid Robert, 144 Seventh Ave. (note: not certain this is the same family, but 288 West 18th street is just two blocks from 144 Seventh Ave, which suggests this may be the same family as recorded in the 1880 census above.)
