WthMatravers TradeDir

This index was prepared in 2009-10 by John Patrick.
It is an index of all the persons mentioned in the Worth Matravers sections of the Dorset trade directories. There were no sections for Worth Matravers in the directories prior to 1849 (or in 1852) and no mention of Worth Matravers in other sections. This index is a finding aid only and the original directory should be consulted as many entries give more information than can be included in the index. Names mentioned in the directory introductions are not included in the index unless they were local officials. At the end of the index there is an extra list of entries with no personal names in the titles. Any names and positions given are shown, but these personal names are also in the main index. In many cases there are several entries for the same person and this is because there was a significant change in their directory entry from one year to the next or they had more than one entry per year. There are many obvious spelling and typographical errors in the directories and these have been indexed as printed in the directories. When searching for a particular name in the index and it cannot be found, it is advisable to search for alternative spellings of that name. There are no surnames beginning with: A, G, I, K, Q, U, X, Y, Z. A blank space in the index means that no information was given in that part of the directory entry.
