XIQUES FAMILY and 75 Bennett St. Library
I would like to make just one correction to your article, and that is concerning the name of Jose F J. XIQUES, the former owner of the property of 75 Bennett. JFJ XIQUES is my great grandfather and the name should read Jose F. (not T) J. XIQUES. I have spent many years researching this family and thank you for the article. There is perhaps a story as to why JFJ was so willing to sell his property for so little ($5000)--his wife had died years earlier, he was so devastated with this loss, he lost interest in his property and family.

Thanks again
