Does anyone have a clue how I could get information back on addresses like this: 7851 SE 178 HARLESTON STEET or 17088 SE 76TH CALEDONIA TERRACE? I've tried every combination of the address, but the system just doesn't recognize any of them. Any suggestions? And does anyone know why these strange addresses occur? They look like hybrids/combinations of numbered and lettered street names. I know I could call the assessor's office, but thought I would try here first.
Yep, the addresses are odd. The 7851 SE 178 (or 178th) is the Marion County part of the address. TV gave it the Harleston Street part of its name. Likewise, 17088 SE 76th is Marion's nomenclature and Caledonia Terrace was added by TV.

I guess that's what happens when stubborn means stubborn.
