[celia]

I was thinking of asking for a lookup in the 1855 Directory offer,but it looks like no request have been taken up for months some seem to go back to last year.Looks a bit mixed up. there are now new requests, is the topic closed and someone forgot to lock it no one seems to know what going on???

This doesn't answer your question, but when all else fails there's always this site (it doesn't have 1855, though):

http://www.historicaldirectories.org/

But maybe you already know of this - if so, sorry for the interuption and back to your question -

[celia]

Yes i know of the directories,I have been using them at my library for years. The Cheshire ones, thanks  for the reply though.I have actually forgotten who i was going to look up now anyway
