Brooklyn, NY


I think it may stand for Enumeration District. Brooklyn wasnt always a part of NYC.

Looks like he moved from 60 Ewen St. to 58 Ewen St. by the time this was published in 1897. The bottle which has an address of 60 Ewen St. was probably made about 1890. Thanks for the research.

Status: online 		It is my understanding that "Brooklyn, Eastern District" is the name associated with parts of Kings County annexed into or merged with the City of Brooklyn in the 1850s.  These "new" parts of the City of Brooklyn were formerly the Cities of Williamsburg and Bushwick.  Without a real basis for saying this, I suspect that the reference to these new parts of Brooklyn as the Eastern District stemmed from the fact that many of the street names were the same in all of these merged cities and it was easier to just add an E.D. than to rename all of the streets at that time.  Eventually the street names all got changed too.  Great digging turf too ... so I hear. 

If you want more information about Brooklyn then here it is:  http://www.brooklynrevealed.com/main.html.  Click on Bushwick (at the top left on the map) to get the goods.

I didn't know it either until Gunther Hess brought it to my attention. Here's the link he showed me. http://americanhistory.si.edu/collections/object.cfm?key=35&objkey=4513&gkey=51
