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 - core records for genealogists and family historians - they can certainly provide you with information on the region where your ancestors lived. This large Wise’s directory for 1937 is comprehensive in its coverage.

• Greater Brisbane Street Directory
