Historical Directories
« on: Tuesday 26 April 05 15:11 BST (UK) »
Hi,

For those of you who don't know yet the University of Leicester has online searchable directories 1850 onwards mainly of Leicester and London.

These Directories include amongst others Kelly's and Post Office.

Unfortunately they are not adding anymore books online as they have run out of funding.  However, the site will remain open for another 3 years.

It's well worth a browse - I have found many of my London ancestors on this site including their trades and addresses.

Happy hunting.
