As the buildings in the village (Watertown) are not generally numbered (in 1840), the direction can only refer to the street and side of the street on which they are situated. In designating the side of the street, the direction is necessarily not always literally correct, inasmuch as the streets do not all run on the cardinal points. It is however, near enough to the truth to answer the purposes intended.
The following are the abbreviations used in the list, with their explanation:
n. is used for north.
s. for south.
e. for east
w. for west
sd. for side
cor. for corner
pub. sq. for Public Square
st. for Street
b. for boards
carp. and join. for carpenter and joiner
res. for residence
off. for office
cord. for cordwainer or shoemaker
The names are arranged according to strict alphabetical succession, with reference to the entire name; thus in the Smiths, for instance, C. Smith comes first and Wm. Smith last. Thus by glancing at a few names, you ascertain the one you would find is on the list.
