1888, 1889, 1890 there are entries in the Norfolk, VA Directories for John W Belote - 521 Queen Ave with a second location at "over 17 Atlantic"; 331 Church St with the same 2nd location and 521 Brambleton Ave again with the same 2nd location - could this 2nd location be a business location and possibly where the slaves lived - as I cannot locate this John W, are the directory entries for John W Belote, Jr?
