Title: A question concerning the Wise Po Directories
Post by: troods on Friday 28 September 07 10:57 BST (UK)

Hi everyone

I have used the Wise WA Postal Directory with great success recently and was just wondering do any more PO Directories exist for the other aussie states?
Am mainly interested in Victoria a the moment.

Many thanks
Troods

scroll down nearly half way - this gives you an idea what is available.
including Wise Directories for Victoria.
I do not know of any online in Victoria, apart from an 1847? Port Phillip one.

Ancestry has Sands directories for Sydney & NSW 1861-1933, which is not much help for Victoria, but you might find someone in NSW one day  :)
