The one you mention is :- http://www.historicaldirectories.org/hd/ An excellent site as you say, I confess I don't use it so often now as Ancestry have so many but still a very useful site and *free* The best site for trade directories is historical directories, a search on Google will find the address. Alternatively you can find the address on my rootstoyourancestors(dot)co(dot)uk site, there are also links to many other useful sites for the family historian. This is a free site for family historians Phil Sent via BlackBerry® from BT
