Montreal Official Book of Reference


There are several finds this week for the City of Montreal.

The extracts of the Official Book of Reference for the City of Montreal are several bilingual publications of 1869-1872. They are like a street directory but by block, listing the proprietor's name, the dimensions and square footage of the lot.




There are details at the bottom of some pages that reflect changes.
