No Directory was published in Philadelphia before the year 1785 ; the Houses were not numbered until 1790. Clement Biddle, who was then United States Marshall, is be- lieved to have given numbers to the houses at the time he was taking the Census. and while thus engaged collected the names for a Directory, which was published in 1791. Two Directories were published in each of the following years-1785, 1811, 1817 and 1837.
