My question: Does anyone have the Genealogy.com (FTM) subscription for 1870, 2nd enumeration and would look for 500 S. 27th (Chippewa) st. I am hopping that it will be different than Ancestry or Heritage Quest.

In the 1870 2d enumeration, 500 S. 27th street should be in Ward 7, Dist 21. For Ancestry, images 63-66 are house #'s of 501-531 Chippewa st.(East side) And house #536 Chippewa is image 67 (West side). But where are 500-534? All pages appear to be in order.

A search of the neighbors (Chippewa) through the city directory, place them at S. 27th. My assumption is that it was one in the same street. Name changing from Chippewa to S. 27th in 1897.

The man's name is Michael Martin Hannigan, b. 1835, but has been searched and searched to no avail, by either exact/soundex/variation/first names only, houses, etc.

Thank you, Jane
