Every Genealogist
knows that city directories are indispensible in the search for ancestors. Many of the
older city directories offer a bounty of information about the residents such
as:
- The
address, residence or business or
both.
- The
occupation of each resident.
- The
employer of the resident.
- If
the resident is a student.
- Whether
the lady of the household is a widow. And sometimes it lists her
deceased husband’s name.
- And
don’t overlook the ads! Your ancestor may have owned or worked for
one of the businesses advertising at the time. There’s another layer
of interest to add to your story tucked inside the advertisements.
Besides ancestral links and historical events ,
there are city maps, business listings, city government office holders, cemeteries,
coach and trolley schedules, city parks, populations, city facts and tons of
interesting advertisements
