This product is sold as a CD SECOND or SPARE.
"CD seconds" or "spares" are perfectly good data wise, but have been put aside due to:
- faulty label printing, e.g. off colour or misaligned. A few have been manually labelled or corrected
- over-produced initially, so offered as "spares" to clear
They are all offered at 60% to 90% discount (from the normal price). They will be supplied in clear CD sleeves, rather than the normal CD cases. In many cases they are the last available, i.e. they won't be available, even at full price, when sold out.

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 ...
In this directory you can expect to find people named with their addresses under:
- Alphabetical directory (colony-wide)
- Towns directory
- Street directory (Hobart and Launceston only)
- Trades directory
Other sections including names but usually not addresses:
- Government and official directory
- The Courts, barristers, solicitors, public notaries and Justices of the Peace
- Medical practitioners, dentists and chemists
- University of Tasmania staff
- Non-government school managers and music teachers
- Clergy
- Societies, dairy producers, fruit growers, hop growers, pastoral station owners and managers
- Municipal officers, Road Trusts secretaries, Fruit Board inspectors, Marine Boards members
- Bankers, building societies, insurance officers and company managers
- Manufacturers of English goods for export to Tasmania
Users should always refer to the display advertisements as they often provide names and addresses.
Directories are one of the most effective ways of tracing members of a family, especially tradesmen, is through searching directories. Many small businesses needed to ensure the public was aware of their activity and one of the better ways to do this in an age before media dominated was via a directory. The value of directories as a research tool is enhanced when no census material is available.
High quality scanned images of the whole of the original book. This CD has been bookmarked for easynavigation, and pages can be searched, browsed, enlarged and printed out if required.
