Yours may be the correct one, or he made more than one trip
Rutland VT looked like a possibility because it is so close to Troy NY

Folks tended to stay in the same neighborhood
I believe your family was on Hill Street, 4th Street and 5th Street?

OMGosh! cool..ok is Sreet and Ave. the same back then? The last house that was in out family was on 5th Ave. we had that till 1958, Grandpa died in 54. the rest of this stuff is amazing.

... is Sreet and Ave. the same back then? ...

Sometimes the census taker, the person filling out the ship manifrest, or our family got it wrong
Sometimes streets and avenues changed names over time
