Changes

Many European, Anglo-Indian and other businessmen were named in the [[Directories]] of their day. The most prominent Directory was Thacker's, which originally only covered Bengal, but eventually encompassed all of British India. If your Jewish ancestors were merchants or businessmen, there is a good chance that they would have been listed in Thacker's Directories. A complete set is now housed at the OIOC [[APAC]] in London, but most major libraries will hold a few copies for given years. For a comprehensive description, and lists of where they can be located, visit the informative [http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~poyntz/India/directories.html Thacker's Directories webpage].
