Other than the Historical Directories website does anyone have access to any Manchester Trade Directories before 1840? I'm looking for George Shepherd, shoemaker, likely living in Hulme together with his sons, William Shepherd and James Shepherd who were joiners in Hulme Any help much appreciated Thanks Rob

I found a William Sheppard listed on the back of my 1849 Hulme map. He was a Joiner at 72 Crown street. Crown street ran south from Chester road. Bradshaw street was two streets to the west of Crown.

Hi Rob I did not find any entries for the Shepherd family either as Shoemakers or Joiners on the 1846 Slaters directory the 1834 Pigot Directory the 1828/9 Pigot Directory as listed in Manchester.
