spelling errors

there are many many spelling errors in the directories, I leave them in and put the correct spelling or what I think the word may be in brackets, especially in the 1908, if you check out a few pages it will give you an idea of how you should try many spelling variations while searching for your relative, online or anywhere.

John Jno.

If you are searching for a John in the street directories, try also searching for Jno. I have found this spelling hundreds of times and then found it in later directories as John
