Directories are a valuable resource for family, local and social historians
as well as for researchers in other fields of Australian history.
This Sands and McDougall’s South Australian Directory contains street,
alphabetical and mercantile directories. It also incorporates the Boothby’s
South Australian directory and a directory of several Northern Territory towns.
This directory includes government, official, ecclesiastical, legal, pastoral,
municipal and miscellaneous information on the state.
Directories are an extremely useful tool for establishing when and where a
person lived. However this is just a starting point. Look further to find out
more information about the society in which they lived, the occupation they held
and the people they knew.
This product provides a great tool for researching South Australian history
making information that is difficult to find plainly and easily accessible on
one CD.
