The envelope this negative was in says, “Mr. W. J. Croft, 150 Park St, Portland #203.”
Why I believe this to be the individual.
• The 1935 Portland City Directory indicates that Mary A Kyle, married William J. Croft. In 1940 Census, William J. Croft and his wife Mary lived in Baltimore, Maryland.
• The 1936 Portland City Directory reports William Croft, an account investigator at 515 Congress and residing at 150 Park. It is odd, but no unheard of that he is listed but his wife is not.
• William J. Croft, who was born in Morcambe, England, who lived in Baltimore, but died in Portland, Maine, on 23 August 1956. His high requiem mass was held in Portland, and he was to be buried in Calvary Cemetery in South Portland. William Joseph Croft, who died 23 August 1956 was born 31 December 1904. This photo was taken about 1937 when William Joseph Croft was about 33 years old.
