The Chavez Ravine Genealogy Project

 There is an ongoing project underway to compile the genealogies of as many residents of the three neighborhoods of Palo Verde, Bishop, and La Loma as possible.  This project will take a very long time, but in the end, it will show how some of the residents were related to each other.

The following chart is an example of the type of document that will be produced by the genealogy project:

In a companion project, a directory has already been compiled that lists every resident of the neighborhoods.  This directory was taken from the census data of 1920, 1930, and 1940, and from the voter registration lists of 1950.  The directory lists nearly 6,000 names, and is indexed twice:  first, alphabetically by name; and second, by street address.
