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] BLE - BYR BLETCHLY, J, Plein-st., east BLIGHT, A P, joiner, Betty-st., Jeppe's town BLINKHORN, J V, secretary of companies, box 764, 39 Bettelheim Buildings, Simmonds-st., south BLOGOSLAWENSKI, A J, general store, Commissioner-st., west BLOOD, F W, stock and share broker, box 501, tel.ad, "Blood", Goodman's Buildings, Commissioner-st., centre BLOOM, P, Pioneer Bar, Crown-road, Fordsburg BLYTH, G (JACKSON & BLYTH); residence, De Villiers-st., east BOAG, P (WRIGHT, BOAG & Co.); residence, Frederick-st., east BOAS, B, baker and pastrycook, box 1847, Pritchard-st., east BOCKIES Bros., importers of Kafir, Boer & fancy goods, box 1578, tel.ad.
