Iva, I don't know about the CD but I used the web site http://www.historicaldirectories . It supposedly covered from 1750 to 1919. The project was excellent for the years it covered but coverage for what I see as the most important years (ie before censuses and registration) wasn't very comprehensive. Unfortunately, I understand that the project has now finished.

Iva, Somehow, the .org disappeared off the URL I provided. It should be http://www.historicaldirectories.org Adrian ----- Original Message ----- From: "Adrian Prince" <amprince@iinet.net.au> To: <hollandtulips@earthlink.net>; <leicestershire-plus@rootsweb.com> Sent: Monday, July 14, 2008 5:48 PM Subject: Re: [LEI] LEICESTERSHIRE-PLUS Digest, Vol 3,Issue 172 - Vern Prescott (The Leicester Project) > Iva, > > I don't know about the CD but I used the web site > http://www.historicaldirectories .
