Los Angeles in 1930
 
       This set of Clovers is from the Los Angeles City Directory for 1930.  NARA prepared a set of city directories to go along with the 1930 census because it was not fully soundexed.  This is no longer as crucial since the 1930 census has been indexed by private companies.  However, it may help locate someone who was not indexed correctly or whose name was misspelled in the census.
