    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] COHN - CUT COHN, A, Standard Wine and Spirit Company, box 600, Eloff-st., centre COHN, A, Bree-st., east COHN, B, tea rooms and confectioner, Commissioner-st., west COHN, G, greengrocer, box 1172, Bree-st., east COHN, H, clothier and outfitter, box 1162, Market-sq., south COHN, Louis, grocer and bottle store, box 958, Plein-st., east; residence, next door 140 COHN, Max, Tollemache Buildings, Commissioner-St., centre COLBORNE, A L, President-st., east COLBY, W H, joiner, Jeppe-st., east COLDREY C, schoolmaster, Jeppe-st., centre COLEMAN, S, box 1489, Pritchard-st., east COLEMAN, Mrs, Norfolk Hotel, Fraser-st., north COLLING, T E, Sherwell-st., Doornfontein COLLINS, H H, (manager Natal Bank); residence Plein-st., east COLWELL, T, mason, Polly-st., north COMMERFORD & HITGE, auctioneers and general agent, box 1789, Fraser-st., south COMMERFORD, J J (above firm); residence, Main-st., west COMPTON, W, Market-st., west CONNOCK, J G & Co, booksellers and stationers, box 1044, Loveday-st., south CONRADI, E, stock and share broker, office in exchange, address Exchange, box 908 (CONRADIE ?)
