Finding His House in Lower Gwynedd PA
Using his death certificate info I surmised that one of the houses in the yellow rectangle below is where my grandfather Palm lived.
Evans Road is indicated by the large yellow arrow.
Using the info on a deed I obtained from the county, my other guess is where the tan circle is on this 1970s map - an acre of land.
The red dot is where Polly and I lived starting in 2015.
