This important and rare 19th century Queensland gazetteer is now offered as an inexpensive and searchable CD. It contains ‘the most recent and accurate information on every place in the colony’ in 1876 - a wealth of information for historians and genealogists. It will also interest the general reader with its many insights into the 19th century Queensland and several thousand localities. There are entries for towns and villages, lakes, rivers and creeks, islands, bays, hills and mountains, runs and other localities and features. It often gives latitude and longitude, populations, proximity to other towns, local industries, services such as coach and mail runs, hotels, churches, schools and much more.
After the main Gazetteer there is a 66 page listing of approximately 3,000 runs, with the pastoral districts in which they are situated, the names of their lessees, and the next post towns. A fuller description is given of those runs in the settled districts

TENNINGERING (Co. Bowen) is a telegraphic station near Mount Perry. Tenningering police district had, in 1875, 1,253 horses, 44,401 horned cattle, 596 sheep and 361 pigs.

Churchill) is a postal and telegraphic township and railway station on the Brisbane and Toowoomba line, situated on a creek of the same name, the Lockyer creek being distant 9 miles.

The nearest places are Gatton, WNW 9 miles, and Grandchester, SE 6 miles; the communication, as with Brisbane, 54 miles E, being by railway or road. There is one hotel, the Plough inn. The township is under the control of a road board.

The population in and about Laidley township is about 500 persons. There are three places of worship, belonging respectively, to the Roman Catholic, Presbyterian and Congregational denominations. There is a racecourse to the E of the township, distant one mile. The population of the town and district are all farming. There is one primary school, with 150 on roll-book.

Wise’s directories are the only directories that cover the whole of Queensland, not just Brisbane, suburbs and major towns. Totalling over 1,500 pages it’s not hard to see that this is the most comprehensive as well. The Queensland Post Office
and official Directory 1900 by Henry Wise, is divided into three primary sections: a city and towns directory; an alphabetical directory; and a trades directory.
The Towns Directory: contains directories for Brisbane and suburbs, South Brisbane and suburbs, Charters Towns, Rockhampton, and Townsville along with every other town, township and postal district in Queensland. There are listings street-by-street for the larger regions which list the householder of each house or business owner. The smaller towns, list the tradespeople by name and their occupation.
The Alphabetical Directory: lists alphabetically by surname, together with occupation and address of residents for the entire state.
The Trades Directory: arranged alphabetically by trade or profession, you will find details of all businesses in Queensland. Think of this as an early version of the yellow pages.
There are separate directories including • Medical
• Ecclesiastical • Legal • Educational • Banking and Finance • Insurance • Pastoral and Agricultural • Local Government • Customs • Official • Postal and Telegraphic
The directory includes numerous pages of advertisements - all useful information, often including names of people and places - which together with the main directory and the sub-directories make the work comprehensive and complete.
Now available on CD-ROM, this important reference work is now available for all to use.

The 1903 edition of Wise's Queensland Post Office & Official Directory is the only complete directory of the whole State published. It is divided into three main sections: Towns, Alphabetical and Trades
& Professions. These three classifications enable the enquirer to see at a glance the
Householders or Traders in any one Town; the Business and Address of any resident in the State;
and the Firms throughout Queensland engaged in any trade or profession.
The TOWNS SECTION contains complete Street Directories of Brisbane and suburbs, South Brisbane and suburbs, Charters Towers, Rockhampton, Toowoomba and Townsville, also separate directories for every other Town, Township and Postal District in Queensland.
The ALPHABETICAL SECTION contains the Names, Occupations and Postal Addresses for the entire State.
The TRADES SECTION shows the Business Firms of the State, arranged under their trades or professions.
Special attention is paid to the Wealth Producers of the State, and the Pastoral and Agricultural Directory will be found most complete, while the Stations and Runholders' List alone is a most valuable and reliable one. A full list of Mining Companies is also given in Trades Section.
Separate directories are given in the following areas, making the work comprehensive and complete:-
• Medical • Ecclesiastical • Legal • Educational • Banking and Finance • Insurance • Pastoral and Agricultural • Census 1901 - summaries and breakdown for each Census district • Local and General Government
• Public Companies • Customs
The directory includes many pages of advertisements - all useful information, often including names of people and places.

What is a Directory?
In general terms a directory is an extended version of our current day white pages and yellow pages combined (without the telephone numbers). They list many thousands of names, occupations and addresses ... but also so much more.
What information does this Queensland directory contain?
The Wise's directories were one of the most comprehensive in their coverage, covering the whole of Queensland, not just Brisbane and suburbs, all the regional towns are included too. You will find details of many thousands of people, together with their occupation and residence. You can also find out more details about place in which they lived, the other residents in the town, and the services available in the region ... all of which help to paint a picture of your ancestors life. There are also directories for banking and finance, legal, municipal, ecclesiastical, insurance, educational, medical, pastoral and agricultural sectors.
What areas are covered by this Directory?
This directory covers Brisbane city, its suburbs, and regional Queensland (over 1500 places are covered). The Street directory which lists heads of households house-by-house, street-by-street covers: Brisbane, Charters Towers, Rockhampton, Toowoomba and Townsville.
How can this Directory help me?
Directories are an extremely useful tool for establishing when and where a person lived, however, this is just a starting point, look further in the directory to find out more information about the society in which they lived, the occupation they held and the people they knew. Using this directory will give you the names of the householder street-by-street for a number of regions. The Alphabetical section lists all householders alphabetical by surname, together with their occupation and residence. The towns section lists the towns alphabetically, together with the householder, and their occupation. You will also find the trade directory useful, as it lists everyone alphabetically by trade, together with their address. There are government, legal, ecclesiastical, banking, municipal and pastoral directories included as well.

The 'Greater Brisbane Area Atlas and Directory of Residents and Streets' was first published in
1931 in order to provide up-to-date maps and residential information of Brisbane and its suburbs.
In the eight years since the first edition, the growth of the better known suburbs and the opening
up of new districts, as well as alterations and additions to city buildings, has been so great,
that the necessity for a Revised Edition became apparent.
This 1938 directory contains over 60 directory maps and includes a key map of the greater Brisbane
area, and includes Wynnum, Manly, Lotla and Sandgate. Following each directory map is a list of
the streets and street-by-street listing of residents for that particular area.
There is also a listing of suburbs, hotels in the Greater Brisbane area, buildings and chamber
index, and a street index.
High quality scanned images of the whole of the original book. This CD has been bookmarked for
easy navigation, and pages can be searched, browsed, enlarged and printed out if required.
