    Thanks, Mandy.
    I've got 1936, which will probably be very similar to 1938.

    On a similar subject, I've got a huge collection of photocopies of maps, and can do requests.

    Hi Jacky
    I'm sorry I should have explained what they are.

    A street directory is similar to a modern phone book ,it usually lists the main house holder, their occupation address & phone number if they have one

    I can search by address or name

    not all addresses are listed & I have only found one of my relatives court properties seem to have been ommitted
    but they are useful for checking where a family was after the 1901 census

    Hi Jacky
    my directories are on CD which I bought from archive Cd books
    http://www.rod-neep.co.uk/acatalog/england.html
    I've just checked & the Liverpool directories are on special offer

    Directories included:

    1766 Liverpool's first ever directory
    1796 Gore's Liverpool Directory
    1821 Gore's Liverpool Directory
    1843 Gore's Liverpool Directory
    1860 Gore's Liverpool Directory
    1881 Kelly's Directory of Liverpool
    1911 Gore's Directory of Liverpool & Suburbs
    1938 Kelly's (Gore's) Directory of Liverpool & Suburbs

    for just £45.00 (+VAT) in stead of £118

    in the meantime if you give me your grans name or her parents names(if you know them) I could look it up by name

    Hi Mandy, : No, i dont have ancestry,but people from G.R and F.T.F have looked for me,
    I seem to have come to a brick wall now,i think this is because everything leads back to India,and it is like looking for a needle in a haystack then !!!
    But i Thankyou for your offer
    Jacky xx

    Hi Jacky
    I know what you mean about brick walls have you tried looking for Robinson or Rimmer in Liverpool there are so many of them

    http://genchatfriends.proboards39.com/index.cgi? is also a good forum for Liverpool families
    hope you break down your wall soon

    Standish St is in the Holy Cross parish Jacky off Gt Crosshall St.
    The arrow on this Map is pointing to Standish Street.
