My father was a Bania who lived in Detroit from around that time period. I saw in his census records that he lived at a boarding house before meeting my Grandmother and changing his last name to Sherwood. I am unaware about Rooselvt Street, but it sounds familiar. If you are still connected to this profile, please feel free to email me at rs118809@ohio.edu. I am a filmmaker graduate student who is reverting back to the Bania name.
