another so cal newbie

I've heard her mention Hollydale many times. Where abouts (street) and what years?

They lived on Taft, about 4 houses East of Garfield and a few blocks South of Gardendale. My grandpa bought in the mid 40's when it was new and sold and in the mid 60s, right after the Watts riots. Dad left home in '52 to join the marines at 16.
