Hello All;

I just got the following url http://chicagoancestors.org/#tab-home from COOK-CO-IL List. Its a link to a service from the Newberry library in Chicago which includes among its tools on-line Chicago City directories for 1866, 1870, 1875, 1880, 1885, 1892, 1900, 1910, and 1923. Its almost like having Ancestry Plus back! When I clicked on them in my Mac they downloaded as pdf files. Its a goldmine!

Cheers, Wayne

Correction, I should have said "Street Guides" not "Directories".

Cheers, Wayne

Wayne,
That link doesn't work.  I even tried doing it as .com instead of .org.  Please recheck the link and repost.
 
Thanks,
Cari Jane

Hi Cari;

I just tried it again and it worked fine. Just to be sure, I'm posting it again: http://chicagoancestors.org/#tab-home

And if you want to go straight to the street guides:
http://chicagoancestors.org/#tab-tools

Hope it works for you this time. Cheers, Wayne
