The Sands' directories are one of the best known of the Australian directories as well as one of the most comprehensive. Directories are an invaluable resource for local, family and social historians as well as for researchers in other fields of Australian history. While they do not give you birth, death and marriage details - the core records for genealogists - they can certainly provide you with information on the region where your ancestors lived, as well as information on their occupation and more.
Divided into six main sections: Street directory; Alphabetical directory; Trade and Professions directory; Country Commercial directory; Country Trades and Professions directory and a Pastoral directory.
- Street directory lists householders street-by-street, and covers Sydney, Alexandria, Annandale, Ashfield and Summer Hill, Auburn, Balmain, Bankstown, Beecroft, Bexley, Botany, Burwood, Cabramatta, Canley Vale, Canterbury, Concord, Darlington, Drummoyne, Dundas, Eastwood, Enfield, Epping, Ermington and Rydalmere, Erskineville, Fairfield, Glebe, Gordon, Granville, Holroyd, Homebush, Hornsby, Hunters Hill, Hurstville, Killara, Kogarah, Kuring-gai, Lane Cove, Leichhardt, Lidcombe, Lindfield, Liverpool, Manly, Marrickville, Mascot, Mosman, Mount Colah, Newtown, Normanhurst, Northmead, North Sydney, Paddington, Parramatta, Pennant Hills, Petersham, Pymble, Randwick, Redfern, Rockdale, Roseville, Ryde, St Ives, St Peters, Smithfield, Strathfield, Sutherland Shire, Thornleigh, Turramurra, Vaucluse, Wahroonga, Warringah Shire, Waterloo, Waverley, Willoughby, and Woollahra.
