Can anyone decipher this address

Hi.

Wonder if anyone can decipher an address on a Philadelphia Passenger List please ?

Something we are working on - on the link below.
Thomas Boyd. Philadelphia Passenger List. 15th October 1911. SS Dominion.

Sorry everyone - just realised should have posted in Deciphering & Recognition Help - perhaps a moderator could move this for me. Thank you.

Hi Hibee.

Thanks for your response - the second part would be a County in Pennsylvania - but there is no Greenford - nearest one would be Greene. Keep wondering though if the County part has been crossed through.  ???

Hmm...if the part before "P.a." is definitely a county, I'd say it would most likely be "York" or "Bucks" as I think they're the only two that end in a k.
