Cindy - I am going to the library today. I will look at the map that has the names on it plus the cross reference list I did when I worked there. 11th Street is North of 10th street.

I have information here that tells me that my Great Grandparents lived at the corner of River, and Peel in 1905 when their second child was born. I have been looking at my Owen Sound map of today, along with a copy of the Owen Sound Street Directory prior to 1909 trying to figure out where River & Peel would meet, but it does not make sense to me. According to my copy of the Street Directory River St, was at 1st Avenue East, south of 10th street, and Peel Street was at 11th Street East, Looking at the map of today I don't see how this is possible unless I am looking at the map upside down, or if the Street Directory is not right. Is 11th Street not North of 10th street? If your standing in the middle of 10th street looking toward the Harbor is that not North? Does anyone know where I can find an Old Owen Sound map that would have the old street names on it, before they went to the numbering system.
