Diane and Alan Many thanks for your assistance, I am claiming Henry BLANAFORD as my Henry BLANDFORD as he was living at Narrowgut when my g grandfather was born in 1867. The Greville's PO directory's, are they readily available in libraries ? Howard Newcastle. Diane and Alan wrote Hi Howard, I have checked the print-out from the microfilm, with my magnifying glass !! (as the print is very small) and the surname definitely appears as BLANAFORD. It's possible that it may be a printing error, as I have noticed a few strange spellings of some of the place names.

Hi Howard, Seeing as you are in Newcastle, I'd check out the Newcastle Regional Library (Laman Street) or the Newcastle FHS (Mechanics Institute, Elder Street, Lambton) to see if they hold any of these directories on microfilm. They have some fabulous local resources up there ! Or there's always the State Library (Sydney) .....
