I do have, in PDF format, an 1860 DC Directory, an 1862 DC Directory, an 1864 DC Directory and an 1867 DC Directory.....

I don't have an 1865 DC Directory on my subscription to Fold3. It jumps from 1860 to 1866.

Laurie, Where did you get 712 Jackson? Ira Harris and Henry have the same address in 1865 -15th West @ H North. (That is not the Willard.) In 1864 Ira was at the Willard. By 1870 Ira was in Albany. Died there 1875. Henry is sown to be Assigned to the Russel Barracks in D.C. (No other home address.) until1968. In 1874 he is at 8 Lafayette Sq. through 1879. In 1881 he gets assigned to Germany.

Another Item. In Rathbone's "Soldier Record" it says " He and Clara were picked up at her Father's home on H Street, Washington D.C. by President and Mrs Lincoln in their carrige and accompanied them to Ford's Theater.

Another item. I have the City Directories in Ancestry.com. They have Many many Directories, including Sarah Spencer in Poughkeepsie in 1912. Don't buy it - i'll find it for you.
