Thanks Roger. I knew some DC addresses had changed since 1865 but wasn't sure if it was all or just some. The current address I find for Ford's Theatre (on their website) is 511 10th street NW. What an odd coincidence that the address of the Theatre now is the same as where Peanuts was recorded as living then. I love those odd little historical twists!
