This 1852 London directory is a very useful CD containing over 2000 pages of detailed listings. As these listings would have been collected the previous year, this CD can be used with the 1851 London census to aid research into your ancestors, to find out where they lived and worked. It lists residents by street and unusually includes professions. Subdirectories include: an alphabetical list of all tradespeople (name, trade, address); a street index; a list of societies, listing their founders and eminent members; a directory of professions; legal and parliamentary directories etc. A fascinating glimpse into the professional structure of 19th century London and a valuable research tool. This CD consists of digitally enhanced images of the original text; searchable by whole or part name; bookmarked by major headings, and fully printable.
