I visited the Philadelphia Free Public Library at 21st St. and the Ben
Franklin Parkway this week and was pleased to see that there is an index of
obituaries which appeared in the Philadelphia Public Ledger newspaper
during the Victorian era. Close at hand are microfilm copies of the Ledger
so research is relatively easy. I also made notes on the 1870 US census
index re: Chestnuts in Philadelphia if anyone needs them. Contact Bill
