These transcriptions are from the Longland's ALPHABETICAL DIRECTORY of JOHANNESBURG (1893) and include the names of many more residents and also cover the suburbs of Fordsburg and Jeppestown and some smaller areas. They compliment the Street directory that I recently posted I have typed the surnames as they are written in the Directory, but I've completed some abbreviated words for easier reading. Also please note there are words that are not politically correct to use but I have transcribed details as written. I will post them over the next few weeks and apologies in advance for any errors I may make in transcription! 1893 Johannesburg ALPHABETICAL DIRECTORY [Henry Longland] BAA - BLA BAARD, J H, stock and share broker, and house agent, box 382, Royal Chambers, Simmonds-st., south BAART, L, wagon-maker, box 707, Kruis-st., north BACK, M, mining agent, box 515, Natal Buildings, Commissioner-st., centre BACON, S, grocer, box 1456, Ophirton BAECHIOLI, L, speculator, Jeppe-st., centre 127 BAGSHAW, J F (Transvaal Chemical Co, Ltd.)
