Directories
Access from Desktop

Directories are an invaluable local history tool for locating individuals and also for researching house or business histories.

The standard reference directory is the Sands and McDougall street directories.   First published in 1857 as the Sands and Kenny Directory it became the Sands and McDougall Directory in 1862.  It continued until 1974.

Using the directories you can:

  • Trace individuals
  • Find out the addresses of various businesses and trades
  • Trace the history of your house  

We have the entire collection available in microfiche and up to 1942 from the folder on the Desktop.
