Lake County Ohio GenWeb Directories |
City and County Directories have always been a good source of residence, occupation, and often spouses. Since they are annual, they offer a good between-census view of life. Other directories of specialties can also be of value. If you would like to index one, or transcribe a directory prior to 1923, it would be most welcome.
