I plan to do research at the archives to see what I can find.

Your house is one street over from Rogers Street, and near Hunter, which is where Archie Jr. and his wife Janet McIntyre lived.

I assume this is the same family, since the alderman Archie Jr. built a house around the corner. Any ideas on which Archie Weir lived in my home in 1914?

The 1914 assessment is available here:
