The Directories are full of display ads that are not available and have not been logged. L&W Retail is missing for 1871, partial (early letter of the alphabet are missing) for 1875, 1877, 1879, 1881, 1882, 1883, 1884, 1885, 1886, 1889, 1895, 1896, 1897, 1899. No Distillers for 1884. Nothing for 1918. There was a city-wide number change in the 1887 directory. Old numbers appear after the new address.. Tel numbers are shown beginning 1902. In 1904, "temporary locations" are given following a fire (February, 1904), with many new addresses appearing in 1905 and many more in 1906. In 1910, at least two streets appear to have changed names (Canton becomes Fleet?). Retailers listings drop dramatically beginning 1890 but picks up again in 1895. Tel Numbers appear with the 1902 directory.
