Directories are a valuable resource for local, family and social historians as well as for researchers in other fields of Australian history.
This Pugh’s Almanac and Queensland Directory set contains five directories from 1876 to 1880. It includes country and Brisbane trades directories which list the names, addresses and professions of many people in Queensland. It also includes a comprehensive almanac section giving information on weather, events, history of the colony, the government and more.
Directories are an extremely useful tool for establishing when and where a person lived. However this is just a starting point. Look further in the directory to find out more about the society in which they lived, the occupations they held and the people they knew.
