One of the neatest things I have found about 19th century Indianapolis, Is how small it was compared to today...
I.E in 1867 you will have William Bonney, AKA Billy the Kid Living with his Mom & brother at 199 N East Street, and just a few Blocks away, The Up and Coming Business man Richard Gatling is living at 44 s Meridian.. That is just a few blocks from each other.
Wow, I didn't know this, or if I ever did I had certainly forgotten it.
I thought you told me you and William Bonney went to school together..
