WEBB'S Jacksonville Street Directory,


GIVING the location of each street, and showing what other streets and places run from or across it, with the number at which they intersect.


From this list the location of any number on a street can be easily ascertained, as, for instance, wishing to know at what part of Ocean Street No. 90 comes, you look at Ocean Street upon page 32, and find that W. Duval Street runs from 83, and W. Church Street from 97, showing that 90 Ocean would come about half way between W. Duval and W. Church Streets.
