Over time the original intention of the publishers of this Directory was to provide a Sydney wide commercial directory. Over time this extended to NSW country areas. The Directory covers the period 1858-1932/33. It is organised chronologically and can provide an approximate date for when the house was built; a history of those who lived in the house and sometimes their occupation. Sands may also provide you with the name of the house. We have customised the directory to cover the Leichhardt LGA covering the suburbs of:

Annandale, Balmain, Birchgrove, Lilyfield, Leichhardt and Rozelle                                                                                                                                                                  As a searching guide to the area you will find:
