Noreen, New York City did not have boroughs in the 19th century. Brooklyn became part of New York City in 1898 with the consolidation of NYC . If your ggrandfather lived in NYC before that, he lived in Manhattan.

Does anyone know where Midway Borough is or was in New York City? On 1 document I found for my great grandfather Jeremiah John Murphy this was listed as being where he lived in NYC. I did a Google search but can't find it. Any info or suggestion is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for help on this matter.
