Im assuming you have found the census sheet that your grandparents are on for the 1950 census and want to find the address (# and street name) that they were living in. One way to answer your question is to look at the Enumerator's Handbook for 1950 at: =mdp.39015081273297&view=1up&seq=3 On page 29, paragraphs 90 and 91 are instructions about how to put down the specific location of each residence for both urban and rural areas. That is, the two columns on the left side of the 1950 Population Schedule. Sometimes for a long street, the previous census sheet would show the street name that also contains the addresses. Hope that's what you are asking.

Among many things that I do for the City, I have the privilege of assigning 9-1-1 addresses and approving new street names in subdivision plats that come to my table. (I've been doing 9-1-1 addressing for about four years now, thanks to my previous position before working at the city)


After a bombardment of new plats coming to my office these last few months, I've decided to try and find a way to help speed the process of finding existing duplicate/similar sounding street names - as it takes so long to do this manually.


And I kinda understand in theory how these scripts and things work, but i'm not understanding how a user can input a name, like a form with a submit button to search for similar names in a streets list/database.


I then created a webpage that connects to this data and compares the user input. It prints out any name that sounds the same. I used resign so I could match the word DESIGN. You would have more words that match so it would print any that did.


then here is the code. The architecture is like REST. You write a server side script to query your DB and put out the info in JSON. then the website uses AJAX to get the data and do the work client side. In my first example I used ArcServer because then you dont have to write the server side. the HTML is below and below that I have attached a sample server side script that would generate the JSON.


I converted it to VB using a C# to VB tool, and fixed any conversion errors manually to make the program run correctly. (I needed to edit the code to personalize the program more, and I know VB more than C#)


I successfully converted the provided SoundEx code to VB, but couldn't figure out how to convert the supplied Metaphone code to VB. So I searched the internet and found a different Metaphone implementation and got it working that way. (Honestly, I cannot find where I found this since I lost all of my bookmarks.)


Enter your street name in the search box below to find your voting ward. Street names marked with an asterisk (*) indicate streets that cover more than one ward. Please be certain to check the corresponding street numbers as odd and even street numbers are sometimes assigned to different wards. Visit our polling location page to find out where your poll is located.



This tool may take a moment to load depending upon your internet connection speed.


The City's Daytime Neighborhood Street Cleaning program currently runs from April 1 through November 30 for all neighborhoods except the North End, the South End, and Beacon Hill. The daytime program parking restrictions are not in effect during the months of December and March except in the North End, the South End, and Beacon Hill. There will be no posted street sweeping or program related parking enforcement during the months of January and February.


Mechanical sweepers operate weather-permitting. During the winter, street cleaning and parking restrictions are nighttime-only except in the North End, the South End, and Beacon Hill neighborhoods.


In the event that Public Works decides to cancel street sweeping and parking enforcement for weather related reasons, notifications will be sent out by e-mail to NO-TOW subscribers or you may contact 311.


Use this form to search schedules for posted street sweeping, to see when parking restrictions take effect. You can find schedules by street name, or by a combination of neighborhood and day. Lookup results are presented by District (which approximates a neighborhood), Side (odd/even), and Section (for longer streets chopped up by cross streets).


Public Works has made several changes to this program to better align the sweeping schedule with trash/recycling days. Please check the posted signs in your area. The Night Street Cleaning program is focused on sections of the Downtown area and also main thoroughfares city-wide and the parking regulations are in effect year-round. All street sweeping schedules are dependent on weather and roadway conditions.


It appears that it has happened for both Find My iPhone and Find My Friends in Hybrid mode. It would be best if you were to provide feedback to Apple to report this and your desire to see it brought back. I use both of the apps in Hybrid mode and have seen the change. Go to and report that you would like to see the street names come back. You will also see that Points of Interest (POI) icons have also disappeared. I submitted feedback for both myself today.


Mine are still there, when you tap on the map in the i in the right hand corner are you in standard mode. Did you check app store for updates? Did you shut down the phone and restart? Last resort delete and redownload the app.


thank you for answering so quickly. I have always use the app in ....hybrid mode....& all of a sudden the street names have disappeared. Rebooted but still the same....but no worries I can use it in standard mode..thanks again.


These instructions will help you locate your property information on our real property data system. You can search the online database by either the address, street name, account identifier or map reference. You can not search by owner's name, town, neighborhood, subdivision or zip code.


In the example above, the property account indentification number (ACCT #) consists of the county code 01, the assessment district 02 and account number 123456. The county code identifies the jurisdiction in which the property resides.


Select the county in which the property is located by matching the county code to the respective name from the above County Codes table. The county name can also be identified by looking at SDAT's return address on the assessment notice. The return address will be the SDAT office for the county in which the property is located, for example, property located in Garrett County will have the following return address:



State of Maryland

Department of Assessments and Taxation

GARRETT COUNTY

PO BOX 388

OAKLAND, MD 21550-0388




Anne Arundel County:

Following the ACCT# 02 are the two digit assessment district, the three digit subdivision code and the 8 digit account number. You will need the district, subdivision, and account numbers to search for your property


Baltimore City:

Following the ACCT# 03, are the two digit Ward, the two digit Section, the Block (which consists of four digits and in some cases followed by a letter), and the Lot (which consists of three digits and in some cases followed by a letter). Each of these indentifiers are separated with a space. You will need Ward, Section, Block and Lot to search your property.


If the information regarding your property is incorrect, or you have questions about your assessment contact the appropriate local Assessment office. A list of offices and contact information is available on the Maryland Assessment Offices page.


The State of Maryland pledges to provide constituents, businesses, customers, and stakeholders with friendly and courteous, timely and responsive, accurate and consistent, accessible and convenient, and truthful and transparent services.


Address Management Services reviews and reserves street names to be applied to right of way, easements or private drives throughout Travis County. Not all accesses may be named. Duplicate and/or similar-sounding street names are prevented and continuity with existing streets is maintained. For a complete list of street naming rules, as well as an explanation of the street name reservation process, see the Austin and Travis County Street Name Standards. To prevent duplication, 'Reserved' and 'Active' street names can be viewed below in the Street Name Database.


Street Name Database

The Street Name Database includes City of Austin and Travis County streets that are either in use or reserved for use. If a name appears in this list, it may not be used for another street. The database is updated on a nightly basis.


How do I contact and how do I change my street name to the correct one. When looking at my address in the map I found an option to submit mistakes and I did so, but it has been a few months and nothing is changed.As linked above, according to OpenStreetMap I live on Дунда(Dunda) street, which is incorrect. The street is called Дунав(Dunav) it's named after the second largest river in Europe - Danube river or Дунав(spelled Dunav in English letters) in Bulgarian.Here is a picture I took of the street sign as a proof:


Like most of the work on OSM, notes are usually handled by volunteers with knowledge of the area. Possibly someone is monitoring notes in your area and would get around to it (but after 4 months that seems unlikely.) If not, someone mapping in the area will find the note eventually, possibly years later.


If you're capable of making the change yourself, that's a much faster way of addressing the problem. (Note that even after you've fixed the name, it may take a while for delivery services to update their systems with the new data.)
