Trade Directories on line

[Sue Mackay]

For hundreds of trade directories on line (facsimiles of originals) go to http://www.historicaldirectories.org/

Use the Keyword search to enter the name or area you are researching, add the county and the decade and hopefully you'll be surprised how much comes up

Sue - thanks for this. I'd tried this site a few times but couldn't get it to work before. Having now got into the site and can see it was being re-vamped. Looking forward to having a good browse for my London ancestors later...thanks again!

There is another one, After 4 years of work I have completed the transcription of Francis White's 1857 Directory of Derbyshire.
The link is below in my signature file.
Also, if you have trouble with the link shown in Sue's post, try http://www.historicaldirectories.org/HistDir/HTML/counties.htm
