Table of Contents U.S. Residential and Business Directories... 3... 8... 8 Buffalo... 10 Erie County... 12 Society Directories and Social Registers... 26 Telephone Directories for Buffalo and Erie County... 27 Canadian Directories... 27 Directories from Other Nations... 28 Databases... 28 Introduction This directory lists thousands of county, city, town, and village directories owned by the Central Library. Most date from 1850 to 1950, but there are older and newer ones. The Central Library continues to acquire city directories for Buffalo, Erie County, and Western New York. City directories, also known as Polk directories, are essential for genealogical and local history research, because they help establish where individuals lived at a point in time. This list focuses primarily on residential, social, and business directories, and omits specialized directories that focus on travel, education, associations, health care, etc. While every attempt has been made to be comprehensive, we cannot guarantee that this list identifies every single directory in our collection or that the directories listed here won t turn up missing. Directories must be used in the Grosvenor Room and cannot be borrowed. Most of the directories from places beyond Western New York are in a nonpublic storage area and must be retrieved by staff, a process that takes 5-10 minutes. We are happy to pull the directories you need just ask! Because of heavy usage, Buffalo directories may not be photocopied. Instead, a set of microfilmed Buffalo directories is available for copying purposes. The rest of the directories listed here are in hard copy only. Photocopying is permitted only when directories are in good condition. For digitized and online city directories, see Databases at the end of this guide. Use of all cameras must be approved in writing by the Grosvenor Room staff. 2
