This information was taken from a Boyd's Wilkes-Barre and
Hazleton business directory for 1882-1884. Notice how few house or
building
numbers are given in this directory. It makes it difficult to correlate
these listings to current locatons.
For the few locations that do have numbers listed, note
that
addresses are in the old scheme and don't match today's address
numbering. In the old scheme, looking at Centre Street as an
example, numbers began at the corner of Front and Centre Streets and
went up as you went north,
and went up again as you went south, so if an address was 24 Centre
St.,
it would say N or S Centre to indicate whether it was 24 Centre St.
above
Front St. or 24 Centre St. below it.
