It is clear that these boundaries are different from those of the first enumeration in June 1870. In many cases the marshals (enumerators) were careless in recording street numbers so these boundaries may not be exactly correct. However, they can serve as a finding aid for researchers who have names and addresses from the city directory but can't find the names in the 1870 first enumeration index. If anyone detects any errors please let me know and I'll recheck my notes. There are 37 more rolls of microfilm for the 1870 second enumeration. I encourage researchers to record street addresses in others wards as they scroll through the films. Maybe we can get a complete ED guide for this census. I've already finished one roll of the 20th Ward, EDs 1-8, FHC film 0552545 (NARA #1046).
