1959 Evinrude 35 Lark Golden Jubilee Switch

I just purchased my first small boat / outboard. From all accounts it appears to be a 1959 Duracraft Duraflite and the 35 Lark having Golden Jubilee badges indicates to me it must also be a 59 model. My question is about the ignition switch. The decorative bezel has two holes for switches, one for the electric choke and the other is for the ignition switch. The cable that goes to the dashboard from the back of the boat has 6 wires in it: 2 blacks, 1 red, 1 brown, 1 green, 1 white. I just don't know what goes where. I know 2 goes to the choke switch and 4 go to the starter switch. I have neither switch and need some help about what to buy where and how to wire it correctly. Thanks

Thanks but I am outboard stupid. As I explained in the original thread this is the first outboard I have ever owned. The statement "you have a PM" probably would help some, meanwhile I'm still as lost as last year's easter egg.
