    1. [SOUTH-AFRICA] 1893 Longland's ALPHABETICAL Directory of Johannesburg - A
    2. shirley paladin

    3. 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] A AARON, B, Westminster Bar and Store, Anderson-st., east AARON & STEINWEIS (Transvaal Cigar Co), Box 80 tel. ad."Liberta",Kerk-st., east AARON, C (above firm), Nugget-st., north AARONS, B, Duke of Wellington Bar, Market-st., west, residence next door AARONS & KAMPENSKY, clothiers and outfitters, box 308, Market Buildings ABEL & Co., auctioneers, box 698, Commercial Buildings, Simmonds-st., south; W A MACKAY, manager ABEL, J H (above firm), Janie-st, Jeppe's ABELHEIM, M, produce merchant and general store, box 1577, Market-st., east ABLETT, J P & Co., general hardware merchants, ironmongers,, house furnishers and importers of building and mining material, box 1180, tel. ad.
