Thomas and his family lived in the Lincoln Park area of Chicago (north of downtown). They lived on Redfield Street which is now named Willow Street (a short east-west street just west of Lincoln Park) at #28 in 1873 when Delia was born and at #11 in 1888 when Jane died. Thomas died at 659 Sedgwick. His daughter Mary Lippert and family lived on Sedgwick St. (which is also in the Lincoln park area). Addresses in the census: 633 in 1900, 2003 in 1910, 2011 in 1920, all on Sedgwick. Thomas' brother John lived at 113 Park Av. (and later 1822 Park) at one point. Thomas' other daughter Delia Hughes lived on 27 Dayton Street in 1900 and in 1910 at 1815 N. Clybourn (further due west from Lincoln Park and Willow/Redfield street.)

I can find a North North Park Av. in Chicago running parallel to Sedgwick near Lincoln Park. It has to be the right place. Check out % this map showing all of Park Ave, Willow, and Sedgwick all right beside each other. % You may have to zoom to see Willow.
