Split into three files over two CDs, this huge London directory is perfect for expanding some of the leads you may have found on the recently launched 1911 Census.

CD1 contains the main body, starting off with Royal and Govenment lists, followed by a mammoth street directory that lists tenants of the tens of thousands of London homes, as well as their occupations in many cases. The second file contains a 640-page trade and professional directory, which includes a wealth of information on the occupations of your working ancestors in the capital, including addresses and employers details.

CD2 provides directories of barristers, solicitors, court, parliament, clergy, banks and places of worship. It goes a step further than the title suggests and even boasts complete street, commercial and trade directories for the majority of the capital's suburbs as well.

Luckily you can search these 3,500 pages automatically and find some insightful details on your capital ancestors.
