This map is like a gift from the genealogy angels. Finally I have straight in my mind's eye where my ancestors were in 1860 because many of the neighborhood designations have changed. Some completely, like 'Allegheny City' which literally is no more, having been swallowed whole by Pittsburgh proper in 1907. Some distant relatives lived in 'Temperanceville' in the lowerish lefthand corner, but nobody directly, thanks God.
