To assist in locating the farms listed on the 1850 census, I employed a map dating from that period:
M. Dripps' Map of the Township of Oxford, Boroughs of Frankford & Bridesburg, 1849 with parts of Bristol, N. Liberties and Cheltenham Townships

I used this map both to locate the farms and to explore the residential section of the borough.
