Mary Thanks for your reply. With all the great help so far I still have not found the 1880 census record for 52 Pierce. I have only two references--- a birth record and directory record for the location of my ancestors and neither say N, S, E, or W . On the maps of today it shows as an East /West Street and a very short street. Do you know of an extension or of another Pierce that may have run north and south in 1880? Many thanks.

Hello, Where is Pierce on the map? Did you compare it to the maps on www.alookatcook.com If you compare your map to the enumberation district maps, then you can order the film for that district.
