Kelly's Directories

"Kelly's Directory" was a trade directory in the United Kingdom that listed all businesses and tradespeople in a particular city or town, as well as a general directory of postal addresses of local gentry, landowners, charities, and other facilities.

This page contains entries from the directory that are of interest to those researching the Hitchcock Family Tree.

Notes:

  • some abbreviations have been expanded and some punctuation added to improve readability
  • personal names are usually given in the format "surname first name(s)" but have been altered to "first name(s) surname"
