🍺 John Baumann, "Conover corner Richards" Red Hook Brooklyn

In the 1870 Brooklyn Eagle liquor dealer list as "W. Barlmann", "CONOVER cor. Richards"

Note: Conover and Richards do NOT intersect.

Not listed 1870 directory.

Nothing else under this Barlmann. Nothing starting "Barlm" in the 1871 directory. Nothing under "Bar...." on either Richards or Conover. (Black, Fredrick at 119 Conover and Brickwedel, C. H. 136 Conover.)

I believe the adress should have read Wolcott at Richards. The Baumanns were at 52 Wolcott on the north west corner of Wolcott and Richards
