So far, I've been lucky on two out of three attempts, using the cross street feature. The first was easy, as I knew the intersection. For the second, I used Google Earth to "drive" down the street my grandparents lived on, found a house that looked like it was the one, picked up the nearest cross street and went from there. As for the third, the property was outside the city limits and I was unable to locate the county listing. I need to play on the site more, and (sigh) read the directions.
