Tweed's political machine gained numerous offices in New York City, and even to the state legislature and judges' seats, often through illegal means.
Tweed himself was elected to the United States House of Representatives in 1852, the New York City Board of Advisors in 1856, and the New York State Senate in 1867.
Tweed and Gould became the subjects of political cartoons by Thomas Nast in 1869.
Berwick-upon-Tweed, (pronounced "Berrick") situated in the county of Northumberland, is the northernmost town in England, on the east coast at the mouth of the riverTweed.
Although in that region the Tweed forms the border between England and Scotland, and Berwick is located on the northern, Scottish, side, the modern boundary diverts itself around the town to keep it in England.
The town proper lies on the north bank and to the north of the RiverTweed, and was formerly the county town of Berwickshire in Scotland.
