Carol et al, Fold3 also has a good collection of New Orleans city directories. Go here: http://freepages.misc.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~neworleans/nola_sources/city_directories/ and scroll down to "City directories available for a fee online" and check out what Fold3 has.

I think it is worth it. Lots of military records including Confederate civilians who sold commodities and supplies to the army.  Besides Ancestry.com, of course, genealogybank.com is my  second favorite site, but this comes in as  a  solid third.
