Jack, Thank you very much for your suggestions. I tried checking the 1859 Directory for the alternate spellings under which I've found the name - with no success. I was hoping there might be a map or something that would give a description of the boundaries of the election districts in each ward. I have found maps of the wards. I do recall that there were such descriptions for Philadelphia when I was checking there years ago. Thank you anyway - guess I'll continue my perusal of the pages. Jane
